Second of two testimonials I'm sharing this week because: 💡 Who doesn't love a year-end reminder that their work makes a difference? 💡 It's everyone's job nowadays to flag up skills & support that will only ever be available from other human beings (in this case, human editors). #editing #AI

Love this client feedback. Two main reasons: 💡 It's encouraging to be reminded of the good an editor can do. 💡 As AI continues to expand, I like how clients' spontaneous feedback often spells out the key gains of using a *human being* as their editor 👌 #copyediting #communication #AI #humantouch

Book club tonight. Anticipating discussion of racism, cultural appropriation and the publishing industry via this page-turner. (It also features a complimentary meta-nod to copy-editors: 'superhuman, eagle-eyed monsters that catch continuity errors unseen to the naked eye...') #Yellowface

I love a good solution. In a world of problems, it's good to remember there are always powerful actions we can take. One of the best solution-mongering organisations I know is @erc-earth.bsky.social. They're busy restoring nearly 100,000 hectares globally. www.ecosystemrestorationcommunities.org

Why is a document like a building? I blogged about that... I edit from the ground up for positive-impact projects, helping them capture their value and get social and environmental solutions into more people's heads. sallymoss-editorial.co.uk/blog/2025/06... #editing #proofreading #positiveimpact

What is 'glittering sludge'? Find out... www.forkingpaths.co/p/the-death-... As an editor, a writer, a human, I agree it's better to use the brains we were born with to think and write for ourselves. #AI #ChatGPT #academia #highereducation #writing #editing #intelligence #cognition

Has AI replaced editors? I love this answer by Valerie Monckton, for two main reasons: 1) It's an excellent analysis of the pitfalls of blindly using AI for editing. 1/2 #editing #editingservices #AI #efficiency www.valeriemonckton.com/has-ai-repla...

*blushes* Well, this is a lovely review! The good stuff always comes from the client. And the right editor helps them clarify and spotlight it, so no one can miss it. Thanks for the chance to work with you, Mar! #editing #proofreading #communication #PhD #dissertation #teamwork #positiveimpact
