GoodWordEditing.com: Editors Make Less Than Teachers

  • Real Live Preacher · 2 years ago
    Look man, I don't want to play the "I have it worse than you" game, but did you notice that writers aren't even on the list.

    That's because writers aren't even in the equation. We're raw material - a dime a dozen. Writers make less than editors.

    Unless you are a writer with computer skills and can swing a couple of weird deals. ;-)

    I made a great salary as a teacher. But I was doing two jobs. English teachers have to edit AND teach. Which I think makes their hourly rate come to less than an editor's.

    Sorry, guys. I had a moment of public darkness. See my latest retraction.

    It's okay. I can hear the frustration. Especially since you feel the weight of supporting your family. May the Lord send increase!
