Day Two: 8 things that make me happy about editing

  1. I get to read books before they come out.

  2. And make those books better

  3. Which means there are less terrible books out there

  4. As a whole, the people I edit for write better than a lot of the shit I read anyway

  5. It makes me feel special, even though for several of them I'm only one of like twenty people

  6. My editing skills improve (SHUT UP I LIKE GETTING BETTER AT THINGS)

  7. I get to be mean to people and they like it.

  8. Everything that I'm editing is, at its core, amazing
