I’ve Made A Huge Mistake

I find it hilarious that after I wrote my last newsletter, “Consistency in 2022”, I skip a newsletter. 

There isn’t a good reason. You show up. And I didn’t. My 2022 theme has crashed and burned!

I’ve resumed my copyediting coursework, and I am, at the time of you receiving this newsletter, starting my fourth week. You see, I made a wise decision to add a second copyediting class, which means I am taking two classes and working full time. It was after the first week—when the last issue of the newsletter was due—that I sat back, looking at my schedule, and utter the words of one great man: Gob Bluth.

I truly underestimated the editing I would need to perform in both classes, along with the reading assignments and class discussions. What was I thinking? I was thinking that I wanted the classes to be over as quickly as possible. The good news is that one class completes near the end of February. 

I just have to survive until then.

Well, there actually isn’t any other news. My Toggl timeline contains nothing but Productivity Lab and copyediting—and maybe some website updates I forgot to track ….

Don’t worry, I’ve been reading, doing yoga, watching anime, and playing video games to break away and rest the brain. Editing can be draining.

Ok. I did stay up extremely late at night tweaking the theme on my blog—askmark.io. There weren’t any big changes, but I do provide an update: Editor’s Desk: Some Site Updates.
