Thank you to everyone who reposted, liked, and shared my post about the queer (transwoman needed) SR project!

I've received an overwhelming amount of interest for this project. My friend is no longer looking for a reader; a choice has been made. Thanks again everyone!

There's also a time-sensitive (due Feb. 17) SR project for a Puerto-Rican reader.

Network do your thing 💪🏾

Hey queer editors!

An editor friend of mine is wanting to pass along a sensitivity read project.

Are there any transwomen here who offer sensitivity read services or who just want to take this on? Lmk so I can forward your info!

Be Social

How might you go about being social in the writing community on social media?

Join peer groups and participate.

Support fellow genre authors with comments, shares, etc.

The writing community is very supportive if you participate.

I love how welcoming and encouraging the editing community is.

Freelancing is definitely hard, but it's made so much easier by having people in your corner who've been through it and can offer resources and advice.

You all are amazing at what you do!!!

Currently reading Katabasis by Kuang and I can tell I'm in for a wild ride.

It's amazing when an author starts a story in medias res; you feel like you know everything while knowing nothing at all.

(P.S. Babel absolutely shattered me so if Katabasis has anything similar in store, wish me luck 🫠)
