Hannah Robinson has been an editor at some of publishing’s biggest houses. HarperCollins, Simon and Schuster—where we met—and now Grand Central Publishing, a division of Hachette. She primarily works with non-fiction, which is a massive slice of the publishing pie that seems to get all but ignored on social media. We had a discussion about what the job of an editor is, what it isn’t, and whether they’re the scary gatekeepers aspiring authors make them out to be. 

And because I couldn’t resist, we talk a bit about the making of The Dabbler's Guide to Witchcraft and why certain things did and didn’t make the cut.
