Speaker 1 Its not going to ease up! So what can I do for you? Speaker 2 Well, next years my final year and I need to think seriously
21、 about my career. Speaker 1 I would agree with you there. Lets have a look at your file. Youre reading English, youre getting good grades, you got a merit in your first year exams and youre on track for a 2:1 according to your tutor. Have you any idea what youd like to do? Speaker 2 Im very drawn to
22、 publishing. I read a lot of novels and Im quite a good critic. Speaker 1 Thats a good start. Im guessing youd like to be a literary editor? Speaker 2 Thats right. Speaker 1 Well, I should tell you that literary editing is a hard profession to get into and it doesnt pay very well, unless youre at th
23、e top. You could think a bit more broadly than just literature. For example, theres educational publishing, professional publishing and theres also specialist publishing, such as sports.

24、ker 2 Yes, I do. So how do I start? Speaker 1 First of all, you need a good degree but even before that I would contact publishers and see if theyll offer you work experience.

Check the job adverts in the newspapers and maybe look at the specialist publishing trade journal, the Bookseller. Th

But its literary editing that I want to do. Speaker 1 Well, I wish you the best. Let me know how you get on
