yes, I use emojis in comments and queries to authors to convey tone and sometimes for congeniality. no, I'm not sorry about it.

being anti-emoji is a severe affectation at this point unless we're taking about the poop emoji. if an editor uses one of those even once I will be break contract whether I have to give the advance back or no

wait why would an editor use the poop emoji? I could see **maybe** using it with an author I know really well and have worked with for YEARS. but even then I’d probably just write words. editorial work doesn’t seem like the venue for that particular emoji

I have to hope my editor isn't on bluesky because I can hear his giggle
