#indieauthors Do you have questions about levels of editing/the editorial process? I'd love to help answer them. #amwriting #writingcommunity #Selfpublishing

Today, I crossed everything off of my to do list and saw some beautiful flowers on my #StetWalk. It was a good day. #freelanceeditor

Hey #edibuddies! Maybe this is a long shot, but here goes: is there a freelance genre fiction editor out there who would let me interview them for an assignment? No more than 15-20 minutes focusing on your editing career. I promise I'm nice to talk to and not (too) weird.

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

So if you have some writing that you'd like to run by me, get in touch here or head over to ⁣

I'd love to work with you.

What is a sample edit?⁣
⁣
A sample edit is the best way to make sure an editor is the right fit for you and your project. #authors #indieauthor #freelancelife

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

When I do a sample edit, I like to edit 1,000 words (or about 5 pages) of your manuscript at the level we've agreed to. Not sure what your writing needs? I can show you what kind of editing I think will be most beneficial for your project.⁣
⁣

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

More importantly, it can tell me whether I am the right editor for you to work with.⁣
⁣
If I'm not the right person for the job, I'm more than happy to refer you to someone who might be. ⁣
⁣
The best part, though. . . It’s free!⁣
⁣

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

When I return it to you, you'll be able to see my editing style and what you can expect if you work with me.⁣
⁣
So what do I get out of it? I get an idea of how long your project will take so I can give you an accurate price quote and timeline.⁣

Good news: I've finally found the dark and spooky ambient playlist of my dreams. Sharing here for anyone else who needs something creepy to listen to while they work. 🐙 #freelance #editor #wfhlife #HorrorCommunity https://t.co/q2aVwjpAyQ

@AnnaBiunno Would you say it's relevant to people who don't edit nonfiction or other number-heavy text?

I can't believe there's only one session of #ACES2021Online left. Other conference goers: what session has been the most impactful for you? What should I prioritize when I watch the recordings?

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

@Zemidas_Touch That one is definitely on my list! Thank you for confirming my choice.

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

Thank you Jennifer Rowe for sharing this mnemonic. I will be reciting this to myself often, I can tell already. #ACES2021Online

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

Love the Calvin and Hobbes reference in Grammar Saves Lives #ACES2021Online

[Anna @EditorCorbeaux]

Thank you @Sighdell for setting this up. I was one of the excited people, but I was overwhelmed by the logistics of it. I'm excited to have put my name on the list. 😊

[Jennifer Conrad Seidel @Sighdell]

People at the ACES impostor syndrome session were excited by the idea of mastermind groups, so I created a Google spreadsheet to help people sort themselves into groups. I'm not sure this is the best way to gather, but I thought I'd try it.

Quoting Blake Morrison: “When a book appears, the author must take the credit. But if editing disappears, there'll be no books worth taking credit for.” —Anissa Gray #ACES2021Online
