Revise & Resub (#RevPit) is a writing community co-founded in 2017 by a group of editors. It supports authors by offering editing-focused chats and mini-events throughout the year as well as an annual contest wherein querying authors can win feedback and edits on their full manuscripts from professional editors, ensuring their works are polished and ready for agent inboxes.
RevPit offers our editors an unmatched level of connection with the writing community, support, and opportunities to showcase your professional skills. As a RevPit Editor, you’ll connect with writers during the annual contest and via mini-events throughout the rest of the year designed to foster a sense of community. This will give you opportunities to network with writers on a one-on-one basis so they can experience your editorial skills. To see what writers have to say about our work, check out the RevPit testimonials.
In addition, you’ll become part of a team of editors who support each other not only during the annual contest but all year round: we share freelancing and publishing news, tips, and ideas; provide client referrals; and act as a support system as we all navigate our unique paths through the quirks of the freelance editing business.
We seek to add editors to our team who have a positive online presence and who are:
In addition to a good fit, we’re also hoping to find editors who can work with genres and age categories for which we have gaps with our current slate of editors (like Middle Grades and Book Club/Women's Fiction).
We are accepting applications through early July and will be in touch with applicants in August.
Finalists will be asked to participate in our October 10Queries event as a last step in our application process and will know by November whether they are invited to join the RevPit team for the 2025 Annual Contest.
The 2025 Annual Contest is scheduled for April 2025.
