Would it be ok to share with us some of your background during your time in government agencies and nonprofits? How was it, and did your way of working back then impacted your methodology now as an editor?

Oh that’s great to hear Raquel! Good thing to know you like when forests are involved too. ☺️

Hi Raquel! 😄 I read on your profile you love wildlife and on your website you have a degree in Environmental Science. 🤩 Does your passion have an influence on the manuscripts you edit or even the stories you enjoy?

Thank you for taking the time to properly answer me, and thanks again for the other questions I've asked yesterday.
Have a pleasant evening Allison! 👋

I guess sometimes, we think about so many things or we have so much in mind, we elude unintentionally those elements. It did sound great when I read it on your profile and after reading your answer now, it really is. It's a pretty nice skill you got there, a nice asset for writers you work with.

Thanks for answering. 😊 Speaking of skills, when you were asked about what we could expect from you during RevPit, you talk about evaluating how other worlds/made-up cultures might function. It sounds awesome and really intrigued me. Could you share some examples based on stories you worked on?

A more serious question 😆 You mention on your website that you've worked at a newspaper and a magazine. How different those two experiences were for you? And do they still have an influence on your way of working as an editor now?

Riiight?! And you don’t want to miss any interactions, even if it’s not that important. 🤣 It’s crazy how we all have the same worries with these games. It’s BioWare’s faults for creating so much great characters! 😂

Glad to hear it! 🤩
And I know the feeling. It’s so difficult to choose between everyone. 😂 And there’s only two spots given to the squadmates for the missions 😆

If one day I’ll participate to one of those, I’ll be sure to ask who are who to make sure you’re not against me!! Cause, wow, you seem to have a lot of knowledge! 🤣
Thanks for answering to everything I’ve asked by the way. Have a pleasant day, Miranda. 😇

Hi Allison! That’s a nice fox you sharing with us 🥰
I'm so happy to see another editor fan of Mass Effect!!! 😆 Who are your favorite squadmates? And would you like to find a story sharing the same spirit (greats companions, action & adventures in a futuristic universe, ancient techno, huge threat)?

One last question if you don’t mind. Hardest question you were able to answer at one of your bar trivia? 😆

Thanks for taking the time to answer. This is exactly what I wanted. I’m going to read and watch what you shared latter. But it’s great you can even suggest this kind of changes in order to improve a manuscript. I’m all for it! ☺️

I like how clear and direct you are about doing huge changes in a manuscript, Miranda. Whether it has to be with the plot or even the structure. Can you give us some of the biggest makeovers you suggested and if the writers managed to satisfy your expectations?

Sounds like a good idea to have a focus on the subgenres. I don’t know about others but what I like the most is discovering new books and new authors. And sometimes try something I didn’t consider in the past.
But with all this data at your disposal, it must be difficult to choose 😆

Oh I know the feeling regarding recordings. And I also know saying you’re doing fine won’t change it. 🤣
Anyway, that’s a cool way of doing things and it breaks the "monotony" I think 👍

Hi Miranda! I had a pretty good time watching some of your videos on YT (especially Dazzling Dialogue and your recommendations for cozy fantasy). Good job for doing those! 👍 I was wondering what inspired you to start your YT channel and how do you generally come up with the content you create? ⭐️

I was going to say either Fact number 6 or Fact number 9. I can picture the road trips while listening to audio books now. That must be funny 😌
