@lisacordaro @edibuddies If that editor is the one to find the other freelancers, direct them, train them, pay them, and generally be the one responsible for their work, then, yes, I think "founder" is ok.

I don't think I've called myself the founder, but that's what I do. My team are freelancers. They work for me, not my clients. I may be the only "employee" in the business, but I'm not working solo. And I'm responsible for everything.

Been feeling stuck? Perhaps making excuses for not writing? We’re here to get you out of your funk! Get a jump on your next project with our free virtual retreat on November 21–23 from 9 a.m.–5 p.m. EDT. zcu.io/kgVC

Catching up on new followers and adding to my lists. It's been a busy week, and I'm ready for a weekend.

What do you mean I have to work today first?! 😜

Your reminder that the fediverse does not tolerate transphobes, terves and other gender-critical nonsense.

Trans lives matter, trans people are welcome here, and trans people built this place. If you don’t agree, you do not belong here.

#Introduction Hey, y'all! I'm Erin (she/her). I run an editorial agency that offers writing and editing to small and midsized companies. I post a lot about #ConsciousLanguage, #Freelancing, #Productivity, and #BizTips. I occasionally share life adventures and urges to #vote.

I'm happy to get to know you!

@cwwilkie Love your grilling pictures on Insta.
@adamdavidson Would you include editors in that? Might be helpful for assigning editors and maybe copyeditors, depending on the final setup.
