Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,
I'm grateful because I have a book to edit. I love editing. I get to correct errors.
Unfortunately, my posts may be rather sporadic till I'm finished with the book, and I might not get around to your blogs the way I usually do.
Please be patient with me, dear friends. I'm grateful for all of you, too.
Infinities of love,
Janie Junebug
I'm glad you've got one to edit. After three decades of grading and correcting essays, I thought I might go through withdrawal, not having anything to correct, but it hasn't happened to me yet! Take care, my friend~
ReplyDeleteIf I had taught for 30 years, I doubt if I'd want to edit now.
DeleteWell, git-er-done and y'all come back soon, hear?
ReplyDeleteI'll type my little fingers to the bone.
DeleteEdit away! I'll wait.
ReplyDeleteI can always count on you.
DeleteEnjoying your work is so important -- have fun with it and we all will understand. Also, thanks for letting us know why we may not see you. Recently, many of my blogger friends have mysteriously disappeared, just stopped blogging without an explanation. It bugs me.
ReplyDeleteI feel a bit abandoned when bloggers disappear.
DeleteEnjoy your editing journey :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's always interesting.
DeleteWe understand--as head of the Grammar Police, it is both your privilege & your duty to correct errors!!
ReplyDeleteIt is a rare honor to be on the grammar police force.
DeleteDo what you gotta do and we'll be waiting for you to return to us.
ReplyDeleteHave fun editing. Maybe when I'm done with my next manuscript, I'll have you edit it. I bet you'd have fun ripping it to pieces. ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't rip anything to pieces.
DeleteCool, hope you enjoy the process. Can't wait to see you back in action, tell Franklin I said hey.
ReplyDeleteI love editing, and Franklin appreciates your attention.
DeleteHave fun, lady! Well, work you enjoy, anyways. We'll be here when you come back. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm taking a short break right now.
DeleteSounds responsible and fun! Enjoy it :)
ReplyDeleteI am!
DeleteDear Janie, editing can be real labor. For line-editing I think one is mostly using the right brain; for copy-editing the left. And with the latter there's so much to look up to check facts and to find answers in a style manual. So do take breaks and be good to yourself! Peace.
ReplyDeleteI definitely take breaks, Dee. Thank you.
DeleteI always have something to do. My shelves are full of books, and my Netflix queue is huge.
ReplyDeleteI have enough trouble checking my blog posts and weeding out the mistakes.......so hope you are better at it them me........lol
ReplyDeleteI keep forgetting you are a book editor. If I ever, ever get mine finished I will avail myself of your services.
ReplyDeleteI'll be here, at your service.
DeleteIt's a far better excuse than my being lazy. So edit away and have yourself some fun, woman :)
ReplyDeleteI love editing, too! Have fun!
