A reminder to folks hiring sensitivity editors and readers right now:

We& #39;re all fragile, we& #39;re all tired, and the emotional labor that your sensitivity readers do is likely weighing more.

When you read your SR feedback definitely take time to process.

I say this because I know when you& #39;re emotionally weighed down, getting any kind of feedback is a struggle, and you might find yourself on the defensive more easily than you might otherwise.

Take the breath, remember that you sought out support and be thoughtful.

I should also say that this isn& #39;t about any of my clients right now, but is something I& #39;ve been thinking about as I do the work.

Fellow editors, we should be thinking about this too: try to make your delivery kind, even if it& #39;s hard.

I debated posting this thread because I want folks to feel safe hiring me - but this message, I hope, will reassure you that I& #39;m coming to client manuscripts with my eyes wide open about the context we live in now.
