Hey!

How many hours does Samantha work for you on a monthly basis, and how often do you publish?

I aim for about 10 full-length blog posts per year, but I publish other things like book summaries and monthly retrospectives that are less polished.

I work with Samantha on about one article per year, and it takes her 1-2 hours to edit it. She offers different levels of rigor depending on what the client wants. I'm generally interested in high-level feedback and anti-patterns in my writing that she can warn me about.
