I sat down to have my morning coffee and it’s a good thing my book and glasses were in reach because I might be here a while

A visual representation of why I haven’t been able to look at queries/requests/fulls lately: almost all I’ve been doing is editing. This is the last 5ish weeks of edits, color coded for each manuscript. 10 different projects, file dates, titles blacked out for clients’ privacy.

My reward for a couple of good editing days

60 pages Tuesday, when I couldn’t focus, 200 pages yesterday, 100 pages today. #amediting

Apparently why Dusty was not editing with me today

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

160 pages of this for book group plus 280 manuscript pages to read by tomorrow evening 🤓

I *really* hate carrying client edits over on my to-do week to week, but here we are

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

Leaving tomorrow for a trip and have packed the bathing suits and books. Might not bring anything else.

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

In my inbox and wondering why it’s taking me so long to get to you? My clients are too! Current status: Nov for fulls, March for pitches/partial requests, and deep in client work that is taking up all my time right now

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

I know it helped that I was already into this book but I kind of loved the way this author broke up what otherwise would have felt like a too long monologue from one character. (It started on the page before.)

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Some good editing happening over here!

000

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

I got my editing kitty back! (It’s been a while since we edited together.)

020

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Getting an early start on book club reading with the kitty this evening

Better late than never edition - these are my book purchases from our UK trip. Other than a hat I bought at Wimbledon, this is the entirety of the souvenirs I brought home. Look st that gorgeous cover of The Bluest Eye that I got for under £3!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Happy news! It’s Sunday and instead of just remembering I have to read a book for book group on Tuesday, I’m already almost done!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

A work meeting at a coffee shop turned slightly less productive but more fuzzy and soft earlier today

010

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

Back in town and back to my regularly scheduled remembering that today is Sunday and I have to start this book for book group on Tuesday. 🙄 (I’m actually super excited to read it, I just have to hope it’s a quick one.)

A little last min serious evening editing before our trip!

020

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

We leave tomorrow for a big two week trip and so far all I’ve picked out to bring are the books. Time to pack!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 15/06/2026

Sigh. Semi-regular Sunday afternoon post that I just remembered I need to start a book for book group on Tuesday.

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

Pre-edit (and coffee) snuggle. (Now on to both!)

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

I guess I’ll need to be picking a different outfit today

020

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

Back to the couch tonight for the women’s free skate (yes I’m still catching up on the Olympics)

010

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Can’t believe how long it took me to do all my email updates and editor nudges but we’re back to editing!

020

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

Sunday night, always a good time to remember I need to start reading that book for book club on Tuesday. (Sigh)

It looks like we planted ground cover but it’s just hail

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 12/05/2026

My amazing client @jimgenia.bsky.social created a slide deck in preparation for our brainstorming session later today. I’m obsessed.

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Just started a reread of this and am immediately reminded why it’s one of my very favorites.

Gotta love zoom - it was so hot in my office that I was able to go to book club pantless

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

Ok I finished this edit with a couple of hours before my 4p (pacific) meeting so guess maybe I should start thinking about creating the workshop I’m presenting in 3 days

Love it when Word randomly forgets English when I’m editing 🙄

This cat scratches his face against my computer with such force that he turns it halfway around multiple times a day 🙄

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 27/04/2026

I should be working but this guy climbed on top of me so I guess it’s back to watching the Olympics, which I still haven’t finished

050

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

My internet is down so hopefully that means I’ll get some good editing done today!

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

My client @hiddenpoetmusic.bsky.social’s debut book is high on or topping the charts in a few categories at Amazon! So proud of him and his work!

Back to my office and trying to edit with this purr machine in the way

Conference attire day 3: fight evil, read books

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

I’m at a conference with a Western theme and honestly this might be my new aesthetic

Elisa Saphier @elisasaphier.bsky.social · 18/04/2026

And my standard conference pitch-taking shirt with a quote from Margaret Atwood to remind authors that they’re doing something that matters:”A word after a word after a word is power.”
