Day 7.262: The day we met the editor

As I mentioned, E5N1 found a red pen at the beach on Saturday and decided that he was going to be an editor to make use of it.

So, on Sunday morning he came down to breakfast with a flyer* for a presentation called "meet the editor" to occur at 3 pm and with tickets for us all.

At the allotted time, we gathered and gave in our tickets - he had this nifty container to collect them:


His presentation involved him standing on a a small makeshift stage (a step-stool) and explaining why we need an editor and why since we did, he was the one to provide this service for us.

He did a live demonstration - editing this error-laden sentence before our very eyes:


He also gave out some free gifts - I scored this memento:


(I had to do a bit of editing of my own for this one - he didn't write "exiles"). I'm guessing the "meat met" was intentional, but it's hard to be sure.

He also gave this one to Exile #4. No need for edits here, his professional name is "Editor E5N1":


It appears that the editor might need a proof-reader!




* Sadly, I couldn't find the flyer afterwards.
