Creating
a Successful Author-Editor Relationship
(how to form a good relationship with your editor and why
that's important)
Moderator:
Janet Belsky, Professor, Psychology, Middle Tennessee State
University, and author of three psychology textbooks
Janet Belsky
has been writing textbooks in developmental psychology for the
past 25 years. For most of her writing career, Dr. Belsky's focus
was adulthood and aging. She is the author of The Psychology
of Aging: theory, research, and interventions (Wadsworth,
l999), now in its third edition and The Adult Experience
(Wadsworth, 1997). Along the way she also wrote a successful trade
book, Here Tomorrow: making the most of life after 50 (Johns
Hopkins, Press, l988; Ballantine, l990). Her capstone textbook
covering the whole lifespan, Experiencing the lifespan
(Worth Publishers, l997) was just published about 6 months ago.
And now Dr. Belsky is immersed in writing yet another textbook—
this time in child development. In addition to her textbook writing
passion, Dr. Belsky's other life passion is teaching undergraduates—which
she is happily doing, most recently as a Full Professor in the
Psychology Department at Middle Tennessee State University.
