Mid-Week Motivation for Editors

Join Editors BC Programs co-chairs Mahima and Judith for a virtual co-working session to help with those messy middle-of-the-week moments. We’ll have a quick check-in to hear what everyone is working on and then we’ll mute and get down to work. Stating your intention and knowing others are also working can help with motivation and accountability—something we all need sometimes!

So whether it’s creating invoices for your freelance contracts, chugging through a big copy edit, or preparing a presentation for a meeting, come join us every Wednesday in August for a little mid-week boost.
