Oooh, I thought of another #badediting example. When an editor says "I don't like this particular word, I find it squicky, you shouldn't use it", when it's being used appropriately and is in context, and their only actual objection is their personal feelings. Editing must, must, must be an exercise in setting aside the editor's ego and personal preferences. I struggle with this myself, tbh, when I edit other people! It's still bad practice. #editing #writing
I'll start. I find editorial comments in all caps to be horribly aggressive and anxiety inducing. A good editor should never ever do that. It's literally yelling at the author and dear God just no. No no no. It takes me days to recover from that. Anyone else encounter that style? #badediting #editing #writing #anxiety

Full moon rise. An inexpertly edited digital photo I took long ago. It looks more like a sketch than a photo to me. Kind of like it despite the poor quality. #moon #nikon #photography #BadEditing

Wonder why there is any need at all to specify ‘public housing’ when reporting on storm damage in CA? Someone’s home was damaged. Period
