Self-employed editors and writers appreciate repeat clients and referrals. The more we are known and visible, the easier it is to have client prospects. Referrals come to us through past relationships, the quality of our work and our online presence. Relationships work best when we take a genuine interest in our clients’ work and listen […]

An Update on the ODE

novembre 10, 2022 by Lynne Melcombe | 2 commentaires sur An Update on the ODE

I apologize for the long break in what was supposed to be a series of monthly posts (Ode to the ODE). Part of the problem has been Life. I’ve had a busy year professionally and an even busier year personally: six weeks of travelling, my second move in a year and a beautiful new grandson. […]

­­WFB: Working from Boat­­

novembre 3, 2022 by Merel Elsinga | 4 commentaires sur ­­WFB: Working from Boat­­

I am not only an editor, but also a sailing aficionado. To support my passion, my husband and I cruise through the BC waters on our sailboat Andiamo! for weeks at a time—more weeks than a person would have holidays. My aim is to make the transition from home office to boat office seamless. The […]

In-house to Freelance and Back Again

octobre 20, 2022 by Tanis McLeod | 2 commentaires sur In-house to Freelance and Back Again

I started my professional editing career among a team of writers and editors for the Alberta provincial government. At the time, government was the largest employer of editing professionals.

Searching the Oxford Reference Collection

octobre 11, 2022 by Wayne Jones | 4 commentaires sur Searching the Oxford Reference Collection

I’m a minimalist in almost all aspects of my life. The decor of my condo is spare. It’s not polished concrete like you see in those gigantic open-concept loft apartments that have been converted from warehouse spaces (though frankly I see the appeal).

Can I Be an Editor If I Have ADHD?

octobre 4, 2022 by Jahleen Turnbull-Sousa | 8 commentaires sur Can I Be an Editor If I Have ADHD?

Can you be an editor if you have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)? It’s a question I’ve been asked more than once, and one I see posted periodically in editor groups. It’s also a question I asked myself many times at the start of my career. I was diagnosed with ADHD in 2016, the same year I […]
