People seem really happy with the book, and I've been so excited to see that! I'm working on a second edition now which will be out this month....
Hello, Wizard! Sorry I wasn't able to get back to you sooner; I haven't been active on the forum in a while! You are right that it's only...
It's a crucial part of transcribing skill to be able to hear the difference between the two. A transcriber adding contractions where there were...
Sorry roddma. Good luck. I've been hearing you can only take once the Top Tier qual offered on Turk, so I'm curious to know how the write.com one...
At the start, you are right! Under 1K approved is a tough place to be and a great time to find quick HITs from requesters that at least won't...
I know different people do it different ways. I do transcription and a little writing, and I work about 3 hours a day if I'm Turking. If I want...
Something just over $100...$107? But that was only because almost half of it was a bonus that came in. Usually, working part-time days, my top is...
That was super helpful, Crayonshaver. I use "can" a ton, too, if I don't consciously check myself. And glitter, I'm considering it, but I won't...
I was not trying to be condescending. And, well, I do understand that sometimes people figure no one will listen to them. But my point was, I was...

Glad you decided not to quit after all, hapless. :) I agree with ayeembored; unless I'm feeling patient, I hardly ever look at the edits for...
Hey, hapless! Yes, I wrote that Sample Transcript. :) The reason that "But" is not removed there is that as a fragment, the rule that you should...
Aw, Dreamtime, that's really sweet of you. Thanks. I was hoping it was just a mistake, and yeah, I can totally see how that might have happened,...
Glad I could help, Dreamtime. I don't know whether I'd describe it as a fight, but I enjoy helping keep things spelled out. Less trouble for...
Psst, abrahamrohithroy...you mean what Dreamtime said, which was actually, word for word, lifted from my book but not acknowledged as such? :) (I...
About to be added to the style guide, per a convo I had with CW this morning: Only use a single space between sentences and after speaker...
Actually, they were still giving out 5's this past summer. ;) By the way, considering some of the changes lately (most noteworthily, that...
Up to you. But there's a reason I recommend against Claritrans. If they've rejected you once already, but you want to keep working for them, it...
Hi, ayeembored, So sorry to take so long seeing and responding to a post that was partly addressed to me! I actually really like this idea....
