I have editors assist me in my writing, but writing with another author on the same book in alternating chapters and making them flow together would be a real challenge. Read how this author makes that work and learn how you could win a free ebook as well.
I couldn't stand working with a team to write papers in college. I can't even imagine trying to write a book with someone else. I've read some people who were great at collaborating but in those cases I'm thinking the true unsung hero is the editor!
I've run into a few authors who've done this and they both have to be of the same mindset for it to work. For me, I think I'd be editing over and over to make the parts work together. Thus as you suggest, the need for a good editor.
