So You Love Reading? A Book Lover's Path to Editing

Editor

I get this question at least once a week: "I love reading, and I spot errors in books all the time. How can I become an editor?" Every time I see this message in my inbox or social media, I smile because I understand exactly where they're coming from. Reading is more than just a hobby for these people – it's a passion that makes them want to dive deeper into the world of books and publishing.

What Deanna Read #101: November 2024

Can you believe it's almost the end of the year and Christmas is 2 days away? I usually do a Christmas and a New Year post, but it's been a heck of a two years for me, so this is going to be my last post for the year and I'll catch you in thew new year. I am hopeful that the new year will be better. If you are at all interested in what's been going on that's kept me from being more consistent and posting more regularly here, you can read about it here. Otherwise, I'll catch you in the new year and a massive thank you for your patience and continuing to hang out with me through all of this.

On the reading front, it has turned out better than I thought. Not a lot of reading as work was crazy, but actually more than I anticipated, so there's that. I hope your reading month was awesome too.

Here's what I read for the last month.

What Deanna Read #100: October 2024

You guys!!! It's our 100th post for What Deanna Read and I want to celebrate because wow! Can you believe it? This means that What Deanna Read has been running for over 8 years. I'm so excited about this. As a little thank you, I'm doing a small giftaway to my loyal readers. Thank you for hanging with me all this time. Check it out below or you can clicky-clicky here for it.

On to the books read stuff. I'm actually quite surprised because I thought I didn't read much in October, but I did. Hoo!!

Here's what I read for the last month.

What Deanna Read #99: August & September 2024

Sooo... two things. One - we are coming up to ONE HUNDRED What Deanna Read posts. Holy dooley!! This is number 99 and wow! I'm blown away how long we've been doing this. It's still the one post I try to do as consistently as possible. Apologies that I skipped August on its own. Work got crazy, and there was health stuff going on as well. That said, I don't think I managed to read all that much. I'll need to count, but there weren't many books read for the last two months because I was so busy and also not quite 100%. Thank you for your patience.

Here's what I read for the last month.

What Deanna Read #98: July 2024

Helloooo... I think I read a fair bit in July because I was stuck in bed being unwell for most of the month. My stupid body does not love me right now and my health sucks. Hope everyone is well and life is chugging along nicely.

Here's what I read for the last month.

What Deanna Read #97: June 2024

In an attempt to try to get sort of back on track, I'm putting this together earlier. Who knows when I'll get it finished, but this is a start. I'm still struggling with trying to stay up to date with my gigantic to-do list, but work is taking more and more priority and it's gotten busier. I'm not complaining, I love my work, but I won't be honest if I don't at least admit that I was a little burnt out a week ago and needed a break.

Here's what I read for the last month.
