No, I'm not back at IJ yet. But I set up an asylum filter so I can visit my comms while avoiding the pompous proselytizing about the election still going on in my flist. Yayzors! That being said, I stumbled upon a couple things that might be helpful to anyone at the editing stage of their novels. One is an editing forum recently set up at the NaNo site here with some helpful remarks. If you have an account there, you might want to join the discussion. Another is a RedRoom.com contest where you can win a $2,000 professional editing consultation for free just by signing up and creating a blog. Full contest rules are here. This was an eye-opener for me, as I didn't know you could get paid 2 grand just for three hours of sifting through someone's book. Doh! And apparently you don't need a license or anything to do it, simply a desire to.

( If it wasn't so painful to wade through other people's work so much of the time I'd totally go into business for myself! )
