The essay editor is the actor of the excursion who penetrates the impregnable forest of sentences and extracts the essence of articulation from the farrago of paragraphs, then he compiles the essence in a delectable amalgam of erudition and eloquence and adorns them under a veil of silky panache.
Imagine an excursion into a luxuriant forest teeming with buoyant life, where flora and fauna are immaterially entangled in a divine farrago of vitality; imagine the explorer perusing the farrago and slowly, yet surgically extracting the nectar from its bosom while omitting the adulterants that are so obstinately ingrained within its essence.
It is an expedition that entails meticulousness with a penchant for patience, for the reward is most tantalizing and rivalrous of the most luminant celestial entity in the empyreal plane: the promise of lexical benediction.
It is a discipline that requires years of practice and training and the remuneration is often equal to the arduousness of the journey undertaken by the traveller who dares embark on this expedition. Diligent cultivation of one’s acumen has to be betrothed to an appetite for literary enterprise.
Commendations and laurels become passengers in this vessel commanded by wit and sagacity which wield the sword of eloquence enchanted with the mythical incantation of dispelling mystification.
The propensity to write stirring compositions is the foundation of the literary edifice that is denominated as Essay Editing, its constitution has to be consolidated using the substance of one’s thoughts and its structure emboldened with the innate pedigree for edification.
Its exterior is adorned by the vivacious colours of adroitness and perspicacity while the interiors are furnished using the faculty of tenacity; the integrity of the structure is contingent on the optimal coalescence of its constituent components and the slightest inconsistency could spell mortal doom.
The remuneration is contingent on the experience of the editor and the organization they choose to ply their discipline in. A veteran will be remunerated more profusely while a novice shall have to sate himself with a modest pay; despair not, however, for the ascent to the zenith is often across exhilarating terrain that imbues the darer with infallible acumen for the noble discipline they’ve endeavoured to conquer.
In more simple terms, the payment can initiate from anywhere around 30,000 rupees per month and ascend up to 35LPA or above, depending on the expertise of the editor and the opulence of the organization; it is a profession that can be availed by simply possessing a Bachelors Degree and demonstrating unimpugnable genius in their preferred lexicon.
Although English editing is regarded as the most lucrative of the august lot, it is not surprising to see organizations disseminating content in indigenous languages offer regally prosperous careers to aspirants; Hindi language newspapers in India are very comfortable with offering lacs on lacs of rupees to the most diligent savants for their expertise and sagacity.
Possessing a Masters Degree in the domain of Journalism and Communication goes a long way in providing a robust ballast for the integrity of one’s ambition to occupy the editor’s chair: ineffably boosting the chances for the aspirant to land a lucrative position at a coveted organization.
However, like every other mercurial entity liable to abrupt detours, a company might desire its editor to command an expertise in a certain domain of academic study such as the Sciences or Literature; the presence of which’s expertise can be corroborated by displaying a degree or PhD in a coveted sphere of knowledge.
However, as reiterated emphatically above, it is not the remuneration that makes this profession so fulfilling; temporal gratification is often notorious for its transience and has fermented the demise of countless paragons for kindling the smouldering magma of decadence that lies dormant inside every mortal soul.
The author would like to urge the readers to not develop an impression that earthly wealth is contemptible, for everyone is entitled to their individual perspectives which are cardinally inviolable, and contravention of which shall entail the highest punishment fathomable; moreover, the aforementioned doctrine has been reproduced here sincerely to disaffirm any aspiring editors who may be solely pursuing this craft out of avarice or acquisitiveness.
Like the flailing sword of sagacity that lays waste to the perfidy of ambiguity, searing the forsaken realm of duplicity to illuminate the woebegone tracts of emaciated serendipity; the editor commands the ineffable responsibility to do justice to the power of the words, justice to the disgraced spectacle of luridness, a promise of eternal fulfillment leading to an ocean of unparalleled levity.
