Hello to my new followers from @tanyagold.bsky.social’s editing starter pack! I’m a copyeditor, indexer & writer who posts about my varied interests, including birds, moths, old buildings, horses, genealogy, New Jersey, baseball…Sometimes I even post about editorial stuff.
My understanding is that tonight’s installment of “The American Revolution” will involve the crossing of the Delaware, so I apologize in advance for any intemperate posting I may do.

Well, it’s a little late in the season for this but I think I’m going to try and hashtag all my #baseball posts with the hashtag I just used. Mute away!

Here's a copyediting question for you (already resolved; I just wanna know what you'd do).
In the UK, honorifics go Mrs , Mr, Dr, Ms.
Unlike the US where it's Mrs., Mr., Dr., and Ms. .
What if you're writing in a US market, but you're describing a London sign that identifies a doctor in the UK?

Never fails. Didn’t get an autogyro for the daily tasks in Skycards yesterday, so of course this AM, I found three, when I don’t “need” it.
