I like to write from the point of view of monsters. I’m a Muslim-Arab man, and I think a lot about demonization—who gets turned into monsters and who gets viewed as monsters.
Strange Horizons is on the hunt for a few new volunteers to add to our copy editing team. These folks share the responsibility for polishing the magazine’s content before publication by catching typos, fixing funky sentence structure, and applying our house style guide.
If that sounds like something that interests you, read on.
Responsibilities
Read through pieces before publication and check spelling, grammar, punctuation, formatting, consistency, etc.; enforce Strange Horizons house style; note your suggested changes and queries for department editors to address.
Requirements
Ability to work well with others in an online setting and use WordPress and Slack.
Discretion: for example, we'll ask that you not blog about the details of your job, though it's fine for you to publicly say that you have the job.
