Hi, Natalia. What does CNF stand for? Contemporary nonfiction, perhaps?

Hello everyone! My name is Ashtin. I'm a developmental editor focusing on sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and the occasional contemporary or romance. I freelance in the precious few hours I'm not at my 8-5. I love queer books and I'm elated with the amount of queer rep I've been seeing in literature lately. I look forward to getting to know everyone!

Hiya! I'm D. Scott (they/them), and I run D. Scott Edits, LLC. I provide developmental and line edits for academic literature (law, social sciences, and humanities), run an online course on conscious language for academic editors, and am trying to grow the research-&-writing of my business. Happy for this new affinity group, and I'll second Samuel – the LGBTQ+ Editors Association is another great resource that I suggest folks check out! 

Hi! My name is Meredith (they/them) and I'm an academic editor focusing on grant applications, graduate school admissions essays, research manuscripts for academic journals, and dissertations. I have a background in linguistics and international relations, but am interested in editing almost any topic! I'm based in Seattle, WA, and my favorite things are coffee, pastries, books, and dogs. I'm excited to be here. Thanks for facilitating this conversation, Ley!

Hi everyone! I just joined EFA today.I'm Peter (he/him) and I work in English Language Teaching education (ELT, ESL, etc) mainly as an editor, writer and EDI consultant. I'm based just outside Reading in the UK.
