Put 'er There.

Hello, Internet. I'm Ellen Griley. Writer. Editor. Internetter. I like vegetarian cooking and good beer.

  • And I’ve started to find myself going, God, these projects need editors. Editors are really valuable, and, the way things are going, undervalued. These are people who are good at process. They think about calendars, schedules, checklists, and get freaked out when schedules slip. Their jobs are to aggregate information, parse it, restructure it, and make sure it meets standards. They are basically QA for language and meaning.

    Paul Ford, “Real Editors Ship.”
