Hey Bookworms – what’s in a name?

What’s the story behind your nickname?

Heh…well, I started my page back in 2021 just before Covid, and I felt like I had to have this catchy handle. I had this plan to start every post with “Hey Bookworms!”

How quickly did that fall away because my adhd could not for the life of me remember to actually start posts with that.

However, by the time I thought about changing it, I was already several thousand followers deep and I felt weird changing it. So, here we are with Hey Bookworms still three years

Editing

Just a PSA from your copyeditor

I’m not here to judge your writing! I’m simply someone hired to do a technical job! I will assess your writing and suggest edits or fix anything that is incontestable.

This will always be your work! It will always be your voice! I’m just here to make that voice clear, concise, and accurate.

I will always be your biggest cheerleader. The books I work on and the authors I work with have a special place in my heart. I will hype up everything you do, and I will always be a message away to chat.

Dishonesty doesn’t serve either party in editing. I will always be honest, but you can count that I will constructive in any criticism. Rudeness has no purpose in our jobs. I will be gentle and offer suggestions, but remember, they’re just suggestions! It will always come down to your choice in the end!
