#stet

Stet is one of the most important words for an author dealing with editors. It’s one of those bits of trade jargon so essential that it often doesn’t occur to professionals that it needs explaining. So the editor will say, “Stet where you feel appropriate”, and the newbie author, lacking the confidence to admit ignorance, nods in a “yes I will definitely do that” way, and things go wrong. Stet simply means “let it stand” (it’s Latin) and in publishing terms it means “do not make this change; keep my original text”. So you can put stet next to a change you don’t want...

Hello friends!

I was lucky enough earlier this year to work with StoryLoom to craft an interactive choose-your-own-adventure story, and now it's public. There are still a few glitches since it's in open beta, but I think you all will like my totally normal editing simulator! It's just a fun little project designed to mimic editing, and it's super relaxing.

Also, it's in the horror genre.

STET™ is a realistic editing simulator designed to give you a taste of what editing is like! The manuscript is filled with things that need to be fixed, from commas to character motivations, and you get to decide which darlings to keep and which to kill. Edit your way onto a best sellers list today! (not suitable for those who are easily disturbed) And you can play STET™ here!
