Introduction: For twenty-five years I have been a professional editor and proofreader. My experience includes six in-house years with a publisher and almost twenty years of freelance work with companies and writers all over the world. Experience editing fiction (all genres, children's, YA, and adult) and nonfiction, including educational materials, business books, and self-help books. Will edit Word documents onscreen (using track changes), PDF files onscreen or on hard copy, or printed hard copies. Detail- and deadline-oriented; easy to work with.
