I have landed a freelance gig as well as a full-time position, I have agreed to take both. The full-time requires me to be 8 hours at work which is fine, I am a Senior Magazine Copy Editor... and the other one is for proofreading which is for a UK company. I am so afraid I might be spreading myself too thin 😬

Do both and see how it goes. The more experienced you are the less time it takes to quality work. Also don’t explain yourself if you have a conflict. Just say you have a conflict and keep your calendar on both sides up to date to avoid awkward convos and rescheduling.

Who has more respect in the industry: the Magazine writer or Proofreader?

The magazine writer is more respected. Proofreaders are necessary but the task is not as subjective or creative so is not that highly regarded. A writer or editor on the other hand adds a lot of value.
