Making a mid-career change can be as thrilling as it is terrifying. When I decided to pivot into the world of editing and publishing from a career in legal and regulatory work, I was overwhelmed with questions, doubts and the general uncertainty that comes with stepping into a new field.  That’s when I realized that […]

Learning to Love Style Sheets

novembre 9, 2023 by Anne Louise Mahoney | 16 commentaires sur Learning to Love Style Sheets

As a copy editor, how do you feel about creating a style sheet for each project you work on? I’ve found myself in each of these camps at various times, depending on how busy my work schedule is, how complex the project is, how confident I’m feeling and what clients expect. With practice, though, I’ve […]
