I’ve long been a members of a #mastermind #group for #editors, and it’s so helpful!

Text: On the Blog: Is a mastermind group for you? Have you heard of mastermind groups? They've become an increasingly popular topic of conversation recently, and more and more people are members of mastermind groups or looking to join one. editorsteaclub.org

Curious if a mastermind group might be for you?

@ceylanoz.bsky.social walks you through what makes a mastermind group work, how to join or start one, and the unexpected ways they can support your work (and your confidence).

A promotional image for Editors Tea Club featuring two models wearing cozy editing-themed sweatshirts. The background is a soft peach color with teal serif text reading "Editing Season = Cozy Season." Below, the text encourages editors to wrap themselves in comfort while tackling their manuscripts (or avoiding them with tea). The Editors Tea Club website URL is displayed at the bottom. The left model wears a black sweatshirt with "Comma Comma Chameleon" embroidered, while the right model wears a light blue zip-up hoodie with the Editors Tea Club logo.

Editing season = cozy season. ☕✨

Whether you’re deep in edits or sipping tea while thinking about them, comfort is key. Our super soft #EditorsTeaClub sweatshirts are made for long editing days (and well-earned breaks).
