Day in the life of an editor: A thread! Check up on this thread throughout the day to see updates on what I've done for a behind the scenes look! 👀

8am PST: Had a nice chat with a new author trying to learn more about publishing & avoiding scams. Scammers often go after newer authors who may not know, so proper research and getting involved with a community can help so much in avoiding publishing scams.

8:40am: Writing Sprint! I sat down for a 25 minute writing sprint and wrote 450 words for AnimalsWIP! I finished the chapter I was on too!

9:15: Morning Walk! I try to go on a morning and/or evening walk daily if possible. Sitting at a desk/computer all day is very unhealthy so I do try to exercise however I can. Today I had enough spoons to take my morning 25 min walk!

12:30pm: Lunch Break! I'm taking a lunch break after about 2 hours of editing. I added and edited comments for about 40 pages and worked on the feedback letter/editorial report for this project!

1:20pm Back to Editing! I want to get through another 20-30 pages of the comments pass.

2:15pm Afternoon break! I get sleepy and tired so I'm taking a break, lying down in bed and resting. Sometimes I nap! Power naps of 20-40 mins are really helpful actually.
