Collaboration

Work on a project together

4 min read

A book is rarely a solo act at the end. You have a co-author, an editor, a beta reader you trust. Invite them to the project and each one joins with a role, so everyone has exactly the access they should and nothing more.

Pick a role for each person

When you invite someone, you choose what they can do. There are four roles, from lightest touch to most hands-on:

  • Viewer: reads the project, changes nothing.
  • Commenter: reads and leaves comments.
  • Suggester: proposes edits that you approve or decline.
  • Editor: edits the project directly.

Feedback in one place

Comments and suggestions live in the project, not scattered across email and texts. A Suggester's edits wait for you: as the owner, you approve a suggestion before it lands, or decline it. Nothing changes your book without your say-so.

Tip. Give a beta reader the Commenter role and a co-author the Editor role. Match the access to how much you want them changing.
