From scratch.

Talk about just “falling into my lap!”

I’m tired of just reading books for fun. Even in well-written and high minded literature, I find copy errors and other mistakes that in theory should be handled in editing. Frustrating mistakes – typos, misplaced apostrophes, and bigger grammar problems – take me out of the story and make reading less fun.

I want to be a book editor (or some kind of copy/content editor. Online would be fine, too.) At least then I’d have the satisfaction of correcting those problems.

Now, how do I do that?

    I’d try offering to edit on zines or blogs you read that have many contributors. And see if that gets you anywhere…

    Just saw Julie and Julia – of course I thought of you – city gal trying to figure out what to do with her life, turns to blogs and food. I know movies are tough with a toddler, so at a minimum you should netflick it and see if it rings familiar!
