Anne Morgan Edits Writing Tips, Editing Insights, & Behind The Scenes In An Editor's Life . . . Hello Reader! Welcome to 2026 everyone! I don't know about where you are, but here in upstate NY it has started off COLD! I'm fortunate not to live where they are getting multiple feet of snow, but we're still feeling the frigid temps.

Fortunately I've been able to get back to wrestling with my own book, and am finally having some measure of success after stalling out for so long.
