Nathan Vived joined the Independent team as a copy editor one year ago. Lately, he has taken on some additional duties in the web department. We asked Nathan about his first year and his new additional duties.
Have you always wanted to be a copy editor? Any advice for aspiring copy editors?
Authorship has always been the draw to writing for me, but I figured that, like performing arts, there are more jobs offstage, as it were. The thought was that I start in copyediting, gain some industry experience and connections, then leverage that to start writing. Happy to say that the plan has worked! I already have three articles up online!
