A former high school teacher, Katie has transitioned seamlessly into homeschooling, bringing with her a wealth of knowledge and experience. We delve into her journey from formal education to homeschooling, her insights from being a military family, and her passion for the Charlotte Mason educational approach.

We discuss the philosophy's distinct emphasis on using living books, which spark children's curiosity through timeless stories and ideas. We talk about ways to blend diverse subjects into everyday lessons from folk songs, hymns, poetry, to even architecture. Katie also shares her unique perspective on short lessons and building attention spans, which are fundamental in homeschooling, particularly for younger learners. Yet, our conversation doesn't end there. We also address the often underemphasized skill of writing, sharing approaches for teaching writing at varying age levels. We stress the significance of developing writing skills early on and the potential impact on future career opportunities. Wrapping up the episode, we send you off with a powerful message of encouragement for all homeschooling parents: trust in your abilities!

Oliver, I am sending this to you in three parts. I think keeping the record of the last couple of weeks' events intact for our investigation will be important. While this first file will be mostly a refresher for you, I think it's important context for what happened last night. Your friend Andrea... her findings... her theories... I think they might have some weight behind them. Hopefully, none of this needs to be made public.P.S: When they are open to it, I would appreciate it if you could let Ryan know that I am sorry for all of the hurt I have caused them. I hope to work with them in the future.

There are a lot more of you now. I am releasing this from my hospital bed at Myskatonic U Med. Since everyone wants to speculate if I did this to myself, here's the tape from that night. Feel free to make your own conclusions. However, I apologize for making this a public forum for looking into my mother's motives. I did not intend to capitalize on the tragedy and grief that my mother inflicted on the set of Mother of a Thousand. I only ask that you leave my loved ones out of any gripes that you have with me.

As a freelance writer and copy editor, Gabrielle Gerbus had huge concerns especially once business started to drop off. But then… She knew she needed to jump onboard and figure out HOW the proliferation of AI could work to her benefit. Then, her business grew. Her agency now brings in over $15,000 a month in revenue.

In this episode, you'll also hear:What it really means to be a copy editorThe vital skills you need to succeed in copy editingThe benefits of becoming a copy editorTwo resources to kick off your copy editing careerBe sure to read all the way to the end to take advantage of the expert-provided resources! As Christian writers, our skill sets must be constantly evolving. Just because we've published a book doesn't mean our work is done. In fact, if we want to stay relevant in this industry and make an impact for Christ, we need to continue to hone our skills and learn new ways to tell powerful stories. That's why this Published and Paid series is so important. It's designed to help you learn about the various ways that you can develop your skill set and generate money as a writer. This allows you to not only be used by God to the fullest, but also to have the influence and income that you desire. In Published and Paid Part 7, we talked about starting a podcast as a way to spread the gospel and make an impact. If you've ever thought about starting a podcast, make sure you check that episode out and take advantage of the free resource from Christian Authors Network approved partner Carey Green to help you get started. But maybe podcasting isn't for you — and if that's the case, it's okay. If you've tuned in to the entire series and haven't yet found the right path for you to make money as a writer, this eight and final installment may just be the one you've been waiting for. This final path for making money as a writer is a great way to leverage your existing writing skills while continuing to evolve your storytelling abilities. What is it? It's becoming a copy editor. Copy editing can be a lucrative opportunity for those who are skilled in grammar and punctuation. Too often, this opportunity is overlooked because people think it only applies to academic writing, but that isn't actually the case. As a copy editor, your job is to help writers improve their work before it's published. So if you have a passion for excellence and are looking for ways to increase your income as a writer, you might be surprised at how successful you can be. What Is a Copy Editor?So what exactly is a copy editor, and what do they do? First, it's important to understand that “copy editing” is a pretty general term, and there are many different roles you can play within that space. Sometimes, it refers to a proofreader who catches typos. In other instances, it's a person who plans and oversees entire writing projects. But in general, a copy editor is someone who reviews and edits written materials before they are published. This can include checking for grammatical errors and ensuring that the content is accurate and consistent. Just like other roles in the writing space, a copy editor works with other people. In this instance, those people are authors, publishers, and other clients who want to ensure that their materials meet certain standards. This could mean:Working with subject matter experts to ensure accuracyConsulting style guides to ensure consistencyProviding feedback to writers and authors on ways to improve their writingFact checking by verifying resources and ensuring that Bible-based texts are accurate and error-freeSo, in addition to being a fulfilling career, copy editing can also be a great way to serve God and help others grow in their faith. Now that's what I call winning!Vital Skills for Copy Editing SuccessSo how do you know you have what it takes to be successful as a copy editor? Well, there are a few skills you need to have. 1. Excellent attention to detail As a copy editor, it's your job to catch errors in the client's writing. This is really important work, because errors can change the meaning of what a writer is trying to say and can make a text difficult to understand. And from a marketing perspective, errors can also damage a writer's credibility. In our fast-paced digital world, first impressions matter more than ever. When there are errors, people make assumptions. They assume that you're sloppy, or that you're not taking care with your work. As a result, when errors are in play, people tend to question your ability to communicate effectively — and may be less likely to take your message seriously. Of course, it's not possible to be perfect all the time. But copy editors play a valuable role in ensuring that the writer's content is polished to keep their professionalism intact. 2. A good sense of style & understanding of how to format text correctly Depending on the project you're working on, you may end up using different style guides as a copy editor. That means you'll need to be able to apply the style rules correctly to the text you're working on and to format things like headings, lists, and other elements according to the applicable style guide. You'll also need to be able to spot errors in style and formatting so you can fix them. Having a good sense of style and being able to format text correctly ensures the documents are consistent and easy to read — something that readers require. 3. The ability to work quickly & efficiently under pressureCopy editing is a vital part of the publishing process, but it can also be a challenge, especially when deadlines are tight. So to be successful, you have to be able to work quickly and prioritize tasks. That means being able to identify the most important changes to make to ensure accuracy and style consistency. It also means being able to communicate effectively with authors and other members of the publishing team. Copy editing is all about ensuring that every publication that goes to print is the best that it can possibly be, and that includes finishing within the given time frame. But don't stress too much over this one, because with practice, you can learn to work well under pressure. 4. The ability to work independently To be a successful copy editor, you'll need to be self-motivated and able to stay on track without supervision. Of course, being able to work independently and remotely anywhere in the world has its advantages, but it also requires you to be disciplined and organized. It's critical that you be able to focus on your work for long periods of time while paying close attention to detail. And you need strong organizational skills, as you may have to manage large volumes of information and juggle multiple deadlines. Why Choose Copy Editing?If you're thinking about exploring copy editing as a path to make money as a writer, remember that success in this field requires both hard work and a strong commitment to excellence. But as long as you have these skills, a career in copy editing might just be for you! And it has its advantages, too. As a copy editor, you have the opportunity to work with different types of texts and learn new things every day. You could be working with academic or scientific writing, legal documents, technical writing, journalism, fiction books, or nonfiction books — or some of each.Copy editing is also a great way to level up your own writing skills, since you'll be spending so much time editing the work of others and fixing errors. Furthermore, you'll also have the opportunity to meet new people and make connections with other professionals in the publishing space. And finally, as a copywriter, you will be an important part of a publishing team. You'll gain a strong sense of satisfaction from knowing that you played a vital role in each text going to print error-free. Next Steps: Get Started Today!Ready to learn more about copy editing and get started making money? Then here are two valuable resources for you to take advantage of. First, pick up the book Marketing Your Editing & Proofreading Business by Louise Harnby.

Word nerds and punctuation perfectionists rejoice! Encounter Culture host Charlotte Jusinski ends the season in grand, grammatically correct fashion with Dr. Maggie DePond, exhibition copy editor for the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs. Maggie also lends her talents to El Palacio magazine, casting a last, learned glance over every issue before it goes live. The pair geek out over the intricacies of language, style guide rivalries, and challenges associated with distilling eons of information into 100-word captions. Buckle in for syntax shenanigans, a touch of ASMR, and permission to end sentences with a preposition. Ever wondered who edits all the text accompanying every exhibition in the four state museums of Santa Fe (the New Mexico Museum of Art, the Museum of International Folk Art, the New Mexico History Museum, and the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture)? The answer is Dr. Maggie DePond. The work, which is often tedious, requires a tenacious character and plenty of red pencils. For all its old-fashioned aspects, copy editing is a revolutionary profession. Who else but a copy editor could refer to medieval usage of the singular “they/them” to support our modern personal pronoun debate? “I feel that by doing that,” Maggie says, “I'm also teaching other writers what language is, the spectrum of language, and how language can evoke feelings.” And, by extension, every lucky museum goer in the state.

Why write a book is a question many speakers, coaches and trainers ask themselves. Does writing a book really make a difference? Hasn't everything already been said? With the amount of work it takes to write, is it really worth it? Also, what should you write about? There are no cut and dry answers to those questions. We will apply some of the same questions to songwriting to help focus on the value of creating new work. Most everything has been said or written about already, and even though there are cultural shifts, many of the principles are the same. Formats including audio books, video books and even virtual reality are all now within grasp. If you are seriously considering the question Why write a book, spending time with three basic "why" principles will help you determine how or if it will benefit you and your business. The fourth will briefly the "how," to cover what it takes to write and finish a book. Full article: https://goalsforyourlife.com/blog/why-write-a-book
