What would you be most likely to say in conversation?

"The team _____ (is, are) going to treat _____ (its, their) coach to a chocolate lava cake at Lincoln's Chocolate Art Café."

@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.

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.

@grammargirl Oh, that's such a good idea! I'll have to look through my Twitter audience.

letters, encouraging people to vote. It's too important to skip. #VoteLikeYourLifeDependsOnIt #BecauseItDoes #Vote2022

@junecasagrande @grammargirl Reading and listening to news, even from trusted sources can be stressful. I cut back my consumption over the last month to reduce my anxiety. It's helped _a lot_.

@grammargirl That explains a lot, doesn't it? We don't have cable, either, getting our news from NPR or a few trustworthy news sites.

#ElectionDay2022 is coming! Three of the four voters in our household dropped our ballots off at city hall today. The hubs will vote in person on the big day.

It's too important not to have a plan!
