In editing classes, I always heard (sometimes before anything else) that an editor needs to be considerate. Shape your comments to relate to the reader's experience. Be positive. SO my mind is always BOGGLED when I hear about some experiences with editors. BE KIND


We've all felt it. What do you do with writer's block? Over at @InksenseAcademy we break down different shades of blockages and walk you through them. It MIGHT even be the theme of a freebie upon launch @jaime_dill @reachwriter

What's your optimum way to deal with writer's block?



Who here feels like they've been personally victimized by show don't tell?


Sometimes I feel like mine is couple’s counselling, helping repair the relationship between author and story 😅😆

My developmental editing style is a lot like talk therapy in that I don't diagnose the problem and tell you what to do, but rather ask the questions that make you sit back and reevaluate everything you thought you knew.

My test for vacation preparedness is whether or not I have my three to five books picked out yet. Will I read all of them in one week? Absolutely not. Will I pack all of them anyway? Absolutely, yes.


This MC is way snarkier than I thought she would be. I love it.


Got my invite code to Blue Sky Social. Come find me there! @irisninkeditor You can find me on threads, too! Same handle.


I really hate being late and my husband is never on time. And that pretty much sums up marriage.

So far, my pregnancy has caused increased anxiety, which lead to higher meds, which lead to insomnia, which led to changed meds. Now I have a jumping around heart rate. Oh, and the hyperemeis gravidarium.


Find me on Threads as irisninkeditor.carlyscott


Who else is on Threads? Giving it a try 🤷🏻‍♀️

So, who thinks Anton Chekov has the most recognizable quote directing writers to "show not tell"
