    How Coaching Can Help Your Freelance Editing Business

  • I’m a bit behind this week, but I wanted to help spread the word about the #TransRightsReadathon going on hosted by @sim_bookstagrams_badly!

I’ve made donations to both the @translawcenter and the @tnequality in honor of a #FreelanceEditorsClub member and her son. These attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community *must* stop, and it’s up to everyone to support equality for ALL.

If you can’t read along, please consider making a donation, sharing posts, or calling your local legislators. Every little bit helps!

Hyphens can be a huge PITA, but they help clarify and eliminate any potential confusion for the reader.

(Hint: books are on the list...👀)⁠
