A big thank you to the amazing and supportive community of writers and editors who helped me improve as a fiction editor and business owner the past year. I improved a lot this year, and I am looking forward to another (better) year.

Free Bird by Pamela Dean is released. It's a romance comedy story I had the pleasure to beta-read two months ago.
If you love romance comedy and second-chance stories, then you will love this!
I am looking forward to enjoying the story!
Free Bird is available on Amazon.

About a month ago, I applied to an editing job post. The writer sent me a pre-interview questionnaire to fill in. During the interview, the writer just asked me the exact same questions without any additional comments. Have you ever had a similar experience?
