NaNoWriMo is an annual challenge to write 50k words in the month of November. I was planning to discuss pros and cons of participating in the challenge, but I recently came across NaNoWriMo's position on AI, which I found really troubling. We chat about all of the above in this episode.

I asked y'all what podcast episode topics you wanted me to cover, and a few people submitted topics related to either working with an editor or getting started as an editor. We discuss how far an editor should go when editing your work, what content to post as a new editor, how to set your prices and offers, and when you should reach out to an editor you want to work with.
