"[B]othced?" Seriously?
I could be a copy editor. Does it pay well?

Ever since I started law school all I've wanted to do is be a copy editor instead. Law school blows. Grammar rocks.
I love you, anonymous. Please leave your name next time.
(Secret: I'm going to law school next year.)
Copy editing is mostly freelance and doesn't necessarily pay well. A good copy writer, though, can make a nice living.
Copy-editing pays beans. A freelance graphic designer can charge 3-4 times as much as a highly skilled copy-editor.
I am poised to begin a copy editing internship that, at 52 weeks, would pay $33,000. Not bad for an internship.
I'd love to be a copy editor!
