My biggest takeaways from the ACES virtual conference all have to do with kindness. I'm currently watching Erin Servais's lovely & gentle presentation on empathetic editing, and she asks us to share our own definitions.

Empathetic editing for me is listening, communicating, and caring.

What's empathetic editing?

Recognizing the humanity of another and acknowledging within yourself that they're a complex person just like you, and you don't know what you don't know about them, including traumas, triggers, stressors, sensitivities.

As an author and editor, this first session on ACES VCon day 2 is exactly what I need. Some of my most favorite edibuddies discussing how it is to be on both sides of the page. #ACESVCon23

My takeaway: it's all about building a business (and a life) that gives you (and others) joy! What better way to start #ACESVCon23 - thank you Genevieve Clovis, @carolinavonkampen.bsky.social @tanyagold.bsky.social & @estewart.bsky.social.

I don’t like being put in a box and find niching down restrictive. Which is why this session at #ACESVcon23 speaks directly to
my heart!

The advice in this session is so good! The advice to niche down is often focused on marketing but as Genevieve points out, you don't have to talk about everything you do in every post. Also loving all of the chat among editors who like working on lots of different things. My people!

Our #ACESVCon23 panel starts in a few minutes! SO EXCITED!!!

'Go where the energy takes you' (something Genevieve Clovis does) needs to go on a poster. #ACESVCon23

I don’t know = I get to find out.

I need this kind of positivity. Thanks #ciep2023

Lorenzo Fusini (@loref.bsky.social): when words of love diminish you

'Amateur' comes from 'love' (amare) but often used negatively. In Italian, retains positive connotation.
'Dilettante' – comes from 'delight', but is disparaging.
Words don't always say what they seem...!

I’ll miss the first part but hope to join for the second part.

Robin Ince: The point of books is not to check them off: Karamazov on Friday, War and Peace on Saturday... It's to fill your mind with as many ideas as possible and shake them up and watch them fizz.
