I swear I'm going to take every PR firm to task for sending the WORST press releases. Biggest pet peeves:
1. Not sending photos
2. When sending photos, not providing desriptions, IDs
3. Cropping the tops of people's heads when sending head shots
(more peeves later)

Just received a manuscript where the main character's name is spelled five different ways. Either it's a profound statement on fluid identity or... nah, it's a typo. #EditorProblems

Word keeps changing the tense of the eulogy I’m editing to present tense and if I have to change it back again I’m going to end up loosing what little grasp I have left on not crying while doing this #editorproblems
Slowly grasping the concept of editing photos to then be scheduled for later posts vs getting it edited and then just up and posting it. My OCD can't help it thoughh!!! Like once I've done it all I just wanna share all my hard work with you! D: #contentcreator #contentcreatorproblems #editorproblems

Always THAT author... #editorlife #editorproblems
A square image with a blue textured background and white writing. The words read as follows: Reverent: showing great respect and admiration. Alikening to a holy experience. Revenent: a person who has returned, supposedly, from the dead. Guess which one you want to use during an oral sex scene.

This airport is running ads at the gates that say “airport is a VERB” and it makes me want to speak to their marketing dept. #editorproblems

TFW you reach the midpoint of an awesome ms and it's so intense you have to take a break to watch videos of babies laughing at puppies. Like, for real. My heart is pounding. #amediting #editorproblems
