It can be a hard thing to “show your work” as an editor, especially when you are privileged enough to work with some of the best writers. But here are a few unsolicited testimonials from some of them about my work.
There is only one @megancarpentier and she was the PERFECT editor for me and I am sad to be leaving her.

A writer is only as good as her editors so I want to thank @megancarpentier for Saturday’s pubic hair and @HCheadle for today’s fuckweasels.
