So, my husband and I write regularly for a fairly new magazine, with several articles in each issue. Yesterday afternoon, the editor emailed me in a panic, asking me if I could do a rush assignment. Another writer had already written the piece she needed, but the editor wasn't happy with it (she sent it to me, and I can see why. It's boring and the quality is a little lacking), so she wants me to do it.
I need the money so I'm happy to do it, but...I'm feeling a little icky about this other writer. I briefly thought about suggesting the editor offer to let him re-do it, but I don't want to overstep my bounds and maybe she's tried working with him and is fed up. I don't know. Have any of you ever experienced this?
