A Little Humor: Style Sheet
By Iva Cheung
New Feature: A Little Humor!
Editing is a serious task – if done wrong, terrible things might happen.
As the official publication of the STC Technical Editing SIG, Corrigo is full of useful, serious information for technical editing practitioners.
But editing also has a lighter side, and we are delighted to announce a new feature that will spotlight the humorous side of our chosen profession.
Iva Cheung is a certified professional editor, indexer, print designer, and publishing consultant based in Metro Vancouver, B.C. She also draws comics about the editing life, and she’s graciously allowed Corrigo to publish them, which we will do on a monthly basis.
To see Iva’s previous comics, go to her website at https://www.ivacheung.com/. You can also follow her on Twitter (@IvaCheung).
To make it easier for you to find these comics again in the future, they will be tagged with the A Little Humor tag, and the titles prefaced with the same phrase.

To end 2019 with a little bit of humor, Corrigo presents a light-hearted look at sick notes, and why, even when you are feeling under the weather, you still need an editor.
