Friends and fellow editors, in the interest of self-care, I need to take a break from social media, so I will be pausing the Wednesday #EditorSprint for a bit. Please feel free to carry on in my absence. Thanks for understanding. 💛

Looking forward to using @loripax.bsky.social's "Pack Your Parachute" worksheet from her @acesediting.bsky.social #VCON25 session in my upcoming virtual business retreat with the Saplings! 🌱 Thank you, Lori! So many great systems to implement for my personal health (and my business's!). 🤩

I'll be attending @acesediting.bsky.social's #VCON25 today through Friday, so I won't be hosting the #EditorSprint today. See you for sprinting next Wednesday at 1 p.m. Eastern, and hopefully online at VCON over the next few days! 🤩

For every nine times you want to italicize a word for emphasis, consider not doing it seven times.

Hey, #edibuddies! Anyone care for an #EditorSprint today at 1 Eastern? I'm trying to finish up a copyedit.

#Edibuddies! Anyone up for an #EditorSprint today? I feel like I have a million things to do and could really use the focused work time! We will start at 1 p.m. Eastern today!

When you search Google for "Rupert Grint," it asks if you meant "Ed Sheeran," and when you search for "Ed Sheeran" it asks if you meant "Rupert Grint," just in case you were wondering.

#Edibuddies, we are getting close to #EditorSprint time! Let's focus together for one hour, starting at 1:00 p.m. Eastern today. I'll be working on an adult fiction proofread. What are you working on?
August 6, 2025 at 4:52 PM
Reminder that we will be moving the #EditorSprint to Wednesdays at 1:00 Eastern! I'll post again later, closer to the sprint time. Hope to see you then!

Hey, friends! I'm just getting out of a meeting but would love to start an #EditorSprint at 2:15 p.m. Eastern today! Who's in? What are you working on? #edibuddies #amediting

Getting a #StetWalk in a little late tonight since it has cooled down *just a bit* and I’ve finally, *almost* bounced back from a bout of food poisoning.
July 31, 2025 at 12:56 AM
Hey #edibuddies, I'm looking ahead at my calendar and will need to change the #EditorSprint to either Wednesdays at 1 p.m. Eastern or Thursdays at 11 a.m. Eastern starting in late August. Or do you have other suggestions? I can try to accommodate! Let me know what works. 💛
July 18, 2025 at 3:05 PM
Anyone want to sprint today? I’ve been working for the past 4.5 hours straight, but I’d be happy to start an #EditorSprint at 2 Eastern! I just might be sprinting to my bed for a nap this time. 😂 Who’s in?

Saw ABT’s “Sylvia” today at the Met! So beyond beautiful.
