| 0:00.0 | Hey there, what's up? Welcome to Sadisal School. My name is Chris Gill about your host. |
| 0:09.2 | Welcome as well to our segment known as Throwback Thursday. Also known as Where Are They Now? |
| 0:14.0 | I guess we have two names for some things. Just seemed like a good idea at the time. |
| 0:18.1 | No matter what you call it, this segment is about taking an in-depth look at someone who story has |
| 0:22.3 | evolved since we first featured them. Now, I'm very proud of our 1600-plus episodes |
| 0:29.1 | in the Sadisal School Archives, all of which are freely available for listening |
| 0:33.2 | and go to SadisalSchool.com. Download the entire batch if you'd like. It's possible to download |
| 0:37.9 | the batch as one file. It's a very big file. I'll just let you know that. But the point is we have |
| 0:42.0 | all of these great stories in our archives. So it's fun to go back and kind of see, okay, what's |
| 0:46.7 | changed since we first feature this person. Now, last week we heard from the founder of IG Works, |

| 1:05.2 | which in some ways connects to today's update. All right, different person. But today, in our latest |
| 1:11.0 | feature, we're going to hear from Jessica Snyder. She is a freelance romance novel editor. |
| 1:16.0 | freelance editor specializing in romance novels. We first featured her more than 800 days ago. |
| 1:21.3 | And as you'll hear in her update, she is now working full-time. While she was working full-time |
| 1:26.4 | before, but now she's working full-time on her passion project. That's the point because |
| 1:31.1 | she was, I believe, a corporate recruiter. And now she is all in on romance novels. It is, of course, |
| 1:37.2 | a happily ever after story. But what else has happened and what is the world of editing romance like? |
| 1:42.4 | If you have ever wanted to do it, and I am taking notes right now, let me just tell you, |
| 1:46.4 | well, soon we're both going to have some action steps, okay? So let's hear directly from Jessica, |
| 1:51.0 | and I'll come back at the end to wrap us up. |
