Heaneyland!

The stet offensive

Well, it's been just over a week in my new post as a copyeditor at Cargo, so I feel like I should share some anecdotes from the copy trenches. But are there any that will not bore the rest of the world stiff?

Hmmmm. That's a toughie.

I can say that Prada made our life somewhat difficult by having made a new perfume that has no name. When you've got a two-page spread of new fragrances, it can become a subject of much debate, figuring out how to refer to an untitled perfume. What did we decide? Oh, that part isn't interesting. The fact that we had to decide is, though...perhaps.

But it's all been pretty pleasant and uneventful so far. If anything as scandalous as this is going on, I'm certainly not privy to it.
