Senior Farewell: Heather Fasching
I am incredibly grateful to the Hilltop Views staff for hiring me and having faith in my copyediting skills. I had fun constantly researching the rules of AP Style, which I had never worked with before. I cringed every time I had to delete a serial comma, but, alas, it had to be done. It was an invaluable learning experience as an editor.
This job was crucial in helping me secure my post-graduate job as a technical editor at Shell, so I strongly encourage anyone who wants to go into writing, editing, or publishing to get involved with the Hilltop Views. It looks great on your résumé, and the late nights with the staff are full of laughs and Internet trolling. The only downside is that you will not have the honor of working with Shelby Cole, who is my personal queen.
