Hi! I've been Wombat for more than 2/3 of my life, so why stop now?

I edit RPGs and fiction, I'm a most-of-the-time GM, and I've been fiddling with RPG rules since before I was fully grown. I dabble in papercraft (primarily notebooks) and fixing things.

I have a blog (http://gamerblog.twwombat.com) where I'm posting #City23/#Lore24 things. I also set my post retention overzealously short, thus my re-introduction.

This morning I'm sharing a brief thread on my freelance gigs, because social media sharing is good for the discoverability of these gigs and for the search algorithm within Fiverr, for better or for worse. (I'm not here to argue these points; please skip, if uninterested.)

First up, though it may require login, is my profile: https://www.fiverr.com/s/lj01yy7

Do you have any idea how long it takes to do custom transitions for like 70 #photos ?

About 5 hours apparently so you better like this because I deserve like 100 bucks for this if someone was paying me to make it.

I do accept donations if you're so inclined but I never expected a dime.

Just a compilation of my #photography with music about my #adventure through #losangeles the last few months.

Hello #mastadon!

I am remaking this to repin. Asking for #fedihelp!

I am a #writer who is also interested in #photography #editing #video and other projects.

I have limited resources on #disability and a #donation would be used only for projects.

My #socialmedia links with #clapper & #youtube are in my about section, and ways to #help.

I was #homeless for a long time.

I am just trying to bring attention to how awful it is, and my experiences, and want to do more.

Thank you 💜❤️

I wrote a last-minute blog on “Fast and Easy Winter Break #Networking” for this holiday season.

Useful for #editing, #proofreading, #freelancing, and #smallbiz peeps out there … and everyone else too. Enjoy! @edibuddies

Yesterday I published a new biz blog post with a theme a lot of people can relate to right now. Enjoy!

#FediHire post, appreciated!

Hey, writers of the fediverse!

I'm an experienced academic writer and researcher who offers #editing services to students, novelists, or anyone wanting feedback on their WIP. Over the past several years I've helped many writers form clearer arguments and reach their desired audience effectively.

Continued working on that #panda3d live-coder and adding some #3d #mesh #editing tools so, hopefully in the future I won't be at the mercy of Blender's gnarly geometry shader dependency. But this would work for any kind of scene-editing, really.

Note, this is just the micro text editor in a tiling window manager. The only good #UI is NO UI.

Also, it's ACTUALLY FREE, as in MIT-licensed!

If y'all have space for some non-political reading, give my just-published #editing blog a gander. It features one of my favorite peers, Deb Eckerling.

"Make a Plan to Jumpstart Your Book With Debra Eckerling"

Here's a 2022 blog post of mine on a #freelancing #smallbiz topic that's always relevant for writers, editors, and proofreaders: "Taking Back My Editing Portfolio (and Saving Some Money, Too)." #editing #writing #portfolio #digitalmarketing

https://pamelabarroway.com/2022/02/07/taking-back-my-editing-portfolio/

I've been chatting with some peers about human vs. AI #editors and #proofreaders, and job search resources for #freelance creatives. My brand-new blog post is very related: how to engage with #smallbusiness so they see the value of #editing and #proofreading.

Please take a gander and then comment below -- I'd love to continue the discussion here in the #Fediverse! #GetFediHired @edibuddies

"Your Teen Realizes That Editing Matters … Will Small Businesses Follow Suit?"

https://pamelabarroway.com/2023/12/13/your-teen-realizes-that-editing-matters-will-small-businesses-follow-suit/

Fellow editing and proofreading freelancers, now that summer is nearly upon us, do you have a hankering to leave your home office for a few hours and take advantage of the gorgeous weather while working? And more to the point ... how exactly does one work outside successfully? My brand-new blog post explores that very question: "Can You Edit and Proofread Outside?"

Hello #Fediverse! Finally getting around to writing an #introduction post.

I'm a #freelance #editor with a focus on #editing, #proofreading of #business content.

I volunteer to promote #democracy, #votingrights, #reproductiverights, #renewables.

Like many of you, I'm here from the bird site bc ugh. Also looking forward to #mazeldon convos! #Jewish

I'm currently eating popcorn with chopsticks so I don't get my keyboard greasy while I edit. That is all. 🍿🥢

Because women and nonbinary people also make things. We're still fixing this one, apparently.

It's Spring Cleaning season, and there seem to be many new users joining the Fediverse, so it's time to update my pinned #introduction toots, which go back to 2018 when I joined Mastodon.

I have a BA in #English and enjoy #writing and #editing. I #blog, do a little #freelance writing, and enjoy #reading #nonfiction.

My professional career has been spent providing #administrative support to #nonprofits. I am also a serial #volunteer.

Hey fediverse, I am looking for any who might be or know a good technical editor for my latest book on PowerShell? Needs to be an expert in PowerShell but having a background in security would be a plus too. This would be contract through No Starch, I’d put you in contact with them to work out the details.

Recently found out that my great grandmother's dining room set is available for me to have...

Which means the dining room set I currently have needs to be sold.

It is a very good dining room set that was acquired when the original owner wanted to spite his ex-wife and sold it to us for cheap so she couldn't have it.

Also, Reagan and posse could have possibly eaten at this table because it came from a swanky hotel in SF.

Please help me get rid of this table.
