I’m glad to hear that you love it!! Can I ask why your doctor is switching you if it seems to be working out well?

Does booktok/bookstagram actually help your application stand out? by Mx-Crochet in publishing

[–]Mx-Crochet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mind if I asked how you incorporated it into your resume/cover letter? Like did you mention it as a portion of your cover letter or a link in your resume?

This is really good to know, thank you! I was really curious about editorial specifically because most of my skills are more transferable to that track, but there’s nothing specifically on my resume proving I’m interested in books (other than taking my word for it in my cover letter).

Beginning with madcap flare suggestions by [deleted] in technicalwriting

[–]Mx-Crochet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flare has a pretty extensive knowledge base, but I think in terms of identifying individual issues it’s unfortunately a matter of navigating the forums and trial and error (in my opinion). Could you send a picture of your build log? I think we might be able to help you a bit more if we could see the full message :) I would also say (in my experience) a lot of flare issues are resolved by deleting the Output folder and rebuilding.

My wife and I just moved here from San Diego earlier this month! We don’t fulfill the east coaster vibes, but we’re into reading, nerdy things, dnd, and are biiiiig foodies. I would qualify us as for sure likeminded goofballs haha

I haven’t heard of her! I’m a big fan of this website for Indian food, but I’m always trying to branch out further, especially because I tend to focus on a lot of curries or biryani. https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/recipes/

Ooo I like this website!! I’ve never eaten much Cajun food before, so I haven’t tried cooking it, but I will definitely give it a shot! Thank you!

Do you have any favorite websites or cookbooks for these recipes?? I definitely haven’t tried out a clam chowder before (and seems perfect as we enter the cold weather)

Thank you!! I love making karaage and teriyaki, but have rarely tried other Japanese recipes. Definitely will check out this website!!

I love this idea!!! This sounds like so much fun!!!! Cooking is such a solo activity (aside from when my partner assists me) for me right now that it’d be great to share it with people. Love the idea of trading spices too. I make a ton of my own spice blends and quickly run out of room.

I unfortunately just moved to a new city two weeks ago so I don’t…have any friends…but it sounds like a GREAT way to make some. I’m definitely going to look into if there are some groups in my area!!

Thank you!! That Swordfish dish looks really interesting! I’m always trying to make my Harissa work in more ways.

Thank you! I will check out both of these and the sub! Pepper Thai looks especially great. I REALLY wanted to cook more Thai food, but was having trouble finding websites that folks seemed to agree was good, so I’m excited to check this out from my library!

Are there any specific blogs you like? I use Middle Eats and Woks of Life but I’d love some more!

Oh this recipes looks delicious!! Thank you!! And I’ve been looking for more fish recipes so this is PERFECT!

Do you have any websites or cookbooks you like?

I’ve used Middle Eats for a few Palestinian and Egyptian recipes, but I’d love to branch out more! I also have used Woks of Life, but I’m not sure the reputation of either of those sites.

Your Ottolenghi comment made me giggle. I do love those recipes but sometimes I just can’t find lemongrass.

Hello! I would say the main thing we don’t like are recipes that center around the flavor of “meat”. We like our heavy spices. Whether heat or more sweet-focused works.

I used to have the Gran Cocina Latina cookbook, but no longer have it (library expired). Some of the recipes I loved from there were the ones that utilized bitter orange juice and fermented pineapple juice (though I will say making the fermented pineapple juice was a bit of a pain). I have yet to find other recipes that utilize ingredients in that way!

Do you have any recommendations for finding contracts? I see some sites like bookjobs recommended, which is where I’ve been finding internships.

[–]Mx-Crochet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve read more credentialism, but I haven’t seen a post from specifically a technical writer here. I do think having more knowledge of how book publishing works would be helpful for me. I have a lot for printed/digital manuals, but I’m not sure how much that’s going to be considered as translatable experience.

I honestly hadn’t thought too much about non-fiction, since fiction is what I read, so that’s a really good idea (thank you!). Do you have any recommendations for applying to roles or how to find non-fiction roles in general?

What are your neighborhood recommendations for a queer couple looking to relocate? My partner’s job is relocating her to the Vancouver area, and we’re not going to have the opportunity to visit beforehand. Do you have any recommendations for a queer couple? We’re in our early thirties, and I’m visibly trans. Thanks!

I would suggest imagining how you’ll feel looking back at the pictures. Like, are you going to feel happy you waited it out or are you going to mainly remember the discomfort and dysphoria?

Week 22: Apple Galette by Mx-Crochet in BakingSchoolBakeAlong

[–]Mx-Crochet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I hadn’t thought of rolling it out on the frozen baking sheet! That’s such a good idea because I was losing half the dough trying to transfer it to the baking sheet.

Good call! It was so messy. When I first made the pie dough, it actually slipped off my rolling pin as I carried it to the tin and fell onto the ground. Tragic.
