Editalk 

One of the difficulties many editors face in their work is isolation from other editors. In the past, there seem to have been more opportunities for sustained learning from experienced editors because there were more editorial departments in organisations. Now, editing tends to be outsourced to individuals on a project basis, and the profession has fragmented in terms of means for mutual support and sustained relationships. However, how we are perceived by clients is a function of our collective professionalism and competence. For our own credibility and sustainability as a profession, we need to support one another to be the best we can be. Electronic communication technology offers a fantastic opportunity to regenerate a sense of community for editors, and Editalk has the potential to become a lively forum for advice, for debate, for the exchange of information — an extended dialogue and collective mentor.
