"I’m never sure if it’s OK to 'just say no' to an editor’s edits," a questioner begins on The Open Notebook, partly funded by an NASW Idea Grant. Four writers and editors respond with a "maybe." An editor: "I hope that the writer will appreciate that I’ve spent many hours working out how best to edit a story, and that edits are made for a reason: to make something clearer, more logical, more suitable for our audience, or to fit on on page."
