And it&#8217;s just going to be worth it. Yes, there&#8217;s trust, but I also think over time we developed a kind of simultaneity of excitement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-classic mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-heading   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kruse on being empowered, and challenged, by your editor to find the story:&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-classic mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-quote mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-paragraph mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n<p>There is often, in stories where you can&#8217;t quite see what it&#8217;s going to be, you just have a sense, you have an inkling.

I think that it&#8217;s safe to say that if there was a continuing relationship, it was because there were things that I was able to do with that writer to create the approximation of the relationship that I had with Michael.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-paragraph mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n<p>They were open to the constant conversation.

Part of the job of doing the work is to foster those relationships. It feels like a team effort rather than almost adversarial. There is sort of that feel sometimes [that] \u201cthis editor is making me do this and, like, messing with my copy,\u201d but it also is on you, too. I don&#8217;t want to just file a story and then have it come back with corrections on it. That&#8217;s not what this is about. This is a team effort to make the best possible stories and to do reporting the best possible way.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    \n    <div class=\"  core-block\">\n        <div class=\"block block--core block--core-paragraph mb-5   max-w-screen-full mx-auto\">\n            \n<p>I&#8217;m saying this at a time when [it&#8217;s] sort of more in vogue, or even available, to strike out on your own and be independent operators \u2026 you are your own entity and your own company on Substack. &#8230; It has worked for some people, and will continue to work for some people, but for whatever reason, it&#8217;s not how I&#8217;m wired. It&#8217;s not how I&#8217;d like to work, ever. And so, to the extent that you&#8217;re in a position to foster those sorts of relationships with an editor or editors, do it.
