As the writer world turns, to how many days does it take to have an editor respond to your questions in an email? If you recall my letter to the editor, and it took this amount of days to have any response. So as true as I am, I will let you read what was being sent. I only remove the names to be nice and still be a lady of writing.
Tamara,
I'll check with one of the editorial assistants that mostly edits your work. Truly, there are many mistakes in your job. I love your ambition and the high energy behind your passion. However, when an editor must edit every sentence, then it becomes an issue. I'll try to see if I can schedule a time with you and the editorial assistant or "Editor's name" to speak further.
So in response I went through every article that is pending or published, and here they are. I had them already because I wanted to keep what I need to remember for my next articles. I receive all comments in one day. I also responded to all in one day.
Then put the editor’s comments on my social networks. Only wanting to know if Sabrina Ford Fans felt if the editor was correct in their statement. Did the assistant editor must work on every sentence of mine due to I guess a lack of knowledge? I assume the writer tries that to state.
Now, here is my response on the matter. I feel I take responsibility for what mistakes I do and will make, but I listened. I took it to heart to never make those mistakes again. That is why I have the Editor's Comments from Articles list. To keep what was being said about every article that I have written. Wanting to improve and wanting to learn how to be the best writer I can be is number one. Surely every author feels this way, assuming.
Here is the issue being pointed out. None of my points or questions are being made from the email sent to the editor. Nor do I feel that the editors must edit every article written. Even if they find an error it not like it is all 600 words or more. We are taking a handful of edits and that is it.
That all edits was done by me again and only took less than a 2 hours to edit all 27 articles. When I say I responded to all comments that means reading and letting the editor know what is being responded to. Even if I could do nothing about the issue I still responded. Like technical issues meaning the photo did not upload correctly. Or the code came out wrong on the other side of the platform and I could not see it on my end.
Still not seeing this as an editing issue on grammar when the percent shows more technical. If it was every sentence being edited, it would have taken at least a week to do so. Because I took almost a month to write all the 27 articles being posted as we speak.
I find that when I first wrote the first email last week not only did my readers read my article but all 1500 in one day. I can have about 12k readers in a week from 33 countries. I take pride in my work and really make it an honor to write for you. That you take the time for me to read my work or support me in my times of writing. That you my readers, I take note and I feel the need to always prove to you no matter what.
That is why I post everything, which is why I keep it real! So you know that being blunt is about being honest. That being blunt is now the word for honesty. That the word honest is defined as the past and part of history instead. When you think about it that way kind of makes you sad that history has become this.
I feel that article writing has changed. That because readers want to understand that the writer knows what the hell they are talking about. That opinions matter in the news and that news is opinionated. That if the writer does not put their flare it will be just like every other TV news station repeating the same thing written by another writer.
That is why Elite Daily has so many readers because they keep it real and allow their writer be free. By allowing the words like “I” and “myself “. That not everyone wants to read the top 10 and have more sustenance instead of an advertisement.
That maybe it is time for the writers to take a stand on what is being put out. I mean their name is being put on this paper or pen name take your pick. You would think there would be more of a say so when in today's time anything can be posted.
Meaning to say this article will be on my network and my platform. That I will get all the readers and numbers. Not their site, now if this article was being put on their site then they would have the numbers. Not, the case as you can see. It really is a numbers game to be honest about who has more than the other. I guess it is time to keep it real!
Sabrina Ford
