She enrolled in UC San Diego\u2019s Extended Studies program and received a Specialized Copyediting Certificate. Sophia loves copyediting, and it helped tighten up her skills before grad school.<\/p>\n<p>Sophia applied to three schools, including Oxford Brookes. Although she got into all three, Sophia knew Brookes was her first choice: \u201cI interviewed with the Subject Coordinator about the opportunities that the program has to offer, as they host the Oxford International Centre for Publishing. The interview went great, and I knew Brookes was where I wanted to be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Sophia received an acceptance letter from Oxford Brookes, she began reflecting on moving to a new country: \u201cI was scared of the unknown; it felt really impossible to make the huge move.\u201d Sophia explains that sometimes the reward outweighs the risk, and moving to Oxford was the best thing she could have done for herself and her career. She loves being surrounded by rich history: \u201cAt every corner, there\u2019s information on a plaque about historic figures. C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien have a huge presence here; being in an area like this is really encouraging.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwk62ba-47d30567b41d7891b4dc6b845f7ff051\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mhwk62ba-47d30567b41d7891b4dc6b845f7ff051 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mhwk62ba-47d30567b41d7891b4dc6b845f7ff051 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mhwk62ba-47d30567b41d7891b4dc6b845f7ff051 av-styling-no-styling avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  pop-20'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England.webp 900w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-225x300.webp 225w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-773x1030.webp 773w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-768x1024.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-529x705.webp 529w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England.jpg\" height=\"1200\" width=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England.jpg 900w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-773x1030.jpg 773w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/The-historical-Blackwells-Bookshop-in-Oxford-England-529x705.jpg 529w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" class=\"wp-image-102333 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-102333 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"The historical Blackwell\u2019s Bookshop in Oxford, England\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjrau0-8383fad9b6f047203494bd4070d2fc4a\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjrau0-8383fad9b6f047203494bd4070d2fc4a .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:12px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjrau0-8383fad9b6f047203494bd4070d2fc4a '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Pictured Above: The historical Blackwell\u2019s Bookshop in Oxford, England<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjro95-3f4b50caa531a3e8b76a3730afc09a90\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjro95-3f4b50caa531a3e8b76a3730afc09a90 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjro95-3f4b50caa531a3e8b76a3730afc09a90 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Sophia has only been in the program for eight weeks, but she has \u201calready gained so much knowledge.\u201d During the first term at Oxford Brookes, Sophia must complete four compulsory modules: Marketing, Editorial Management, Digital Workflow, and Dissertation. These modules focus on a comprehensive understanding of the publishing industry, including budgets, production (i.e., paper type, binding, design), InDesign training to learn how books are digitally produced, and marketing. Sophia finds Digital Workflow the most challenging: \u201cIn this course, [she] has to create a cover design for a book and then typeset the text as if it were being sent to production to print.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>InDesign can be difficult as well, but it is a key skill to become familiar with the program, as the publishing industry relies on it. During Sophia\u2019s senior year at SOU, students from the <a href=\"\/academics\/english\/programs\/\">English program<\/a> visited Blackstone Publishing, where they watched as production workers created covers and produced books. This fun experience provided Sophia with an idea of what production entails. She carried this knowledge into InDesign training.<\/p>\n<p>Although the creative aspects are fun, the technical elements can be confusing. Typesetting, which occurs in InDesign, is the process of placing the text into the digital format of a book. Typesetting is tedious work, and there is \u201ca lot of pressure on this role!\u201d Everything must be perfect when Sophia finishes, since she sends this file to the printers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjscik-f27ea8f19477fcded716baaf6f253277\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjscik-f27ea8f19477fcded716baaf6f253277 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:26px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjscik-f27ea8f19477fcded716baaf6f253277 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock rising-quote av_inherit_color'  itemprop=\"text\" ><blockquote>\n<p class=\"dig-4\" style=\"text-align: left\"><em>\u201cLearning all the bits and bobs of the publishing industry is especially important for early-career professionals; <span class=\"amaze-ultra madrone\">we can enter the industry feeling more confident in our knowledge, skills, and goals.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"pop-8\" style=\"font-size: 0.6em;text-align: right\">\u2013 Sophia Lorusso<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjt3y5-a5ddd9a502818b144d31be550df05b56\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjt3y5-a5ddd9a502818b144d31be550df05b56 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjt3y5-a5ddd9a502818b144d31be550df05b56 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Sophia uses her English degree regularly while studying the book publishing industry. She enjoys bragging about the various literature courses she took: \u201cSome SOU courses I always like to brag about are Race in Britain: Lit after 1945, Utopian &amp; Dystopian Lit, Trans Lit, Disability Lit, and Class, Culture, &amp; Feminism.\u201d The literature Sophia read, discussed, and analyzed in these courses prepared her for examining literature published on the market.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Sophia\u2019s experience as an English blogger made her confident in storytelling: \u201cStorytelling is important. You have to know how to do this properly in publishing.\u201d Her favorite blog story that she wrote at 麻豆传媒女神 \u201c<a href=\"\/academics\/what-can-you-do-with-an-english-major-manuscript-editing-and-audio-proofing\/\">Manuscript Editing and Audio Proofing.<\/a>\u201d In this post she caught up with two SOU English alums, Reily Nycum and Ciera Leanne Cox, who work for Blackstone Publishing. Sophia found this post \u201csuper inspiring,\u201d as she got to interview alumni and learn about the publishing industry.<\/p>\n<p>Working on the blog also helped Sophia consider her audience when writing. She explains that this will aid her when she starts her dissertation because she thinks, \u201cWho is my audience? How can I appeal to them? What do they want to know? What information do they need to know?\u201d Sophia emphasizes that the audience is a great perspective to consider.<\/p>\n<p>Sophia\u2019s most significant takeaway from blogging is the author-editor relationship she shared with Dr. Margaret Perrow. Dr. Perrow edited each article Sophia wrote, and gave Sophia constructive feedback to guide her in the right direction: \u201cNow that I aspire to be in editorial someday, this experience was important. I know what it feels like to be in the author\u2019s shoes.\u201d Sophia does not write much these days\u2014she focuses on editing, but she would like to write again.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwk72ng-ec629bdd32fe225fc23c36be6a618fab\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mhwk72ng-ec629bdd32fe225fc23c36be6a618fab img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mhwk72ng-ec629bdd32fe225fc23c36be6a618fab .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mhwk72ng-ec629bdd32fe225fc23c36be6a618fab av-styling-no-styling avia-align-  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  pop-20'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference.webp 1200w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-300x225.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-1030x773.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-768x576.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-705x529.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference.jpg\" height=\"900\" width=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-1030x773.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2025\/11\/Sophia-at-the-SYP-conference-705x529.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" class=\"wp-image-102334 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-102334 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Sophia at the SYP conference\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  > <\/picture><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjtaw3-21c99d36314831d433f923fa8573e6df\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjtaw3-21c99d36314831d433f923fa8573e6df .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:12px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjtaw3-21c99d36314831d433f923fa8573e6df '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Pictured Above: Sophia at the Society of Young Publishers conference<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mhwjtk31-1de1ff007b78cd401a3d9c42c6bb8b68\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-mhwjtk31-1de1ff007b78cd401a3d9c42c6bb8b68 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mhwjtk31-1de1ff007b78cd401a3d9c42c6bb8b68 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>For those who plan on going into graduate school for publishing, Sophia encourages people to \u201cresearch, research, research!\u201d and find what is most important to you.
