Looking to speak with people who HATE truffle for an upcoming article! #journorequest #foodjourno

I don’t understand the economy of small villages and towns in Italy. I mean, not touristy places. My brain is atrophied by tech perspective on everything. What do their inhabitants do for life? How do they survive at all? In the middle of “nowhere”.

I could of thought of something else to tweet about, but my question is this: have we stopped teaching spelling in school? I would of thought that the teachers should of told their students that words aren't always written exactly the way they sound.

a weird thing about seeing tiktok/ig creators pivot to newsletters is realizing how few know how to write and would greatly benefit from editors :/

Yesterday I went to Lisbon, it's about two hours from home. I almost never go just to go. But that's what I did yesterday, and it was such a nice little day. A daycation one might say.

I take care of a dog that is extremely clingy — I get up, he gets up. I change rooms, he changes rooms. It's extremely overstimulating for me. I could not even imagine if he were a human, like a small one, that just wanted to always be near me.

The other day I was walking around Lisbon, behind me I heard 'f-k the patriarchy, keychain on the ground' and then a few minutes later, from the dressing room next to me, along with the raid in the store I heard 'leave America two kids fall in love'. Gosh I just love pop culture

In 2016, just before the US presidential elections, Brexit passed, it was a clear indicator of the way the world was going. Now, maybe, we have hope? Maybe? May....be....???

A Portuguese friend once told me he thought it was weird how English speakers say Oporto and not Porto. And I was like I've never done nor heard this. And then an English guy wrote Oporto in a group chat and now I don't know. Is this a British thing?

Diversify! It's the only way to a decent income now for many #freelancers, regardless of their talent, skills or experience. Barista, dog walker, copy editor, tutor, adjunct professor, non-profit copywriting, trades. It's all income and it's all good. Don't be a snob.

Did I miss the hype around Why Women Kill or was there none? Because I can't stop thinking about it and I'd recommend everyone watch it. It's beautiful.

I have an 11 y/o student who goes to things like classical musical concerts. The other day I asked her "Do you know who wrote Pride & Prejudice?" She goes: "I don't know, is it Jennifer Lopez?" So I showed her a picture of Jane Austen & also the Jenny from the block music video.

Brooklin Nash Yes. The term ‘editing’ doesn’t do justice to it. I call it ‘sizzling up’.

If you run a blog, how do you stop all of the ridiculous emails from people wanting to put a 'sponsored post' on your blog? And the 'seo specialists' I get so many and regularly loose important emails amongst them.

A Taylor Swift dance class. An Ariana Grande concert. These are attacks on GIRLS. Failing to mention the sex of most of the victims obscures the fact that this is MVAWG, not random violence. #MVAWG

I don't know who needs to hear this, but... You aren't the only freelance writer on the struggle bus right now! A lot of us are struggling to find gigs, aren't hearing back from editors, or have to accept lower-paying assignments. It's not a reflection on you or your skill!

Had a long-term client tell me they're switching from my work to an AI blog writing tool and then ask me: "Are you worried AI will take your job?" 😵‍💫

Beyoncé isnt going to sing for free when y’all don’t even care about your own freedoms #KamalaHarris
