In this episode of Doing Diversity in Writing, we—Bethany and Mariëlle—take a pause to talk about what to do when hiring professionals to better your writing is not an option (yet). 

What we talked about

• That there’s privilege in being able to advice others to do it right or not do it at all

(Re)sources mentioned on the show

• “The different kinds of editing explained” by Mariëlle: https://mswordsmith.nl/editing-tips-tricks-different-kinds-editing-explained
