I have established CORNERSTONE EDITING, professional freelance proofreading, based on my education and years of experience. I have my Bachelor of Arts degree and studied heavily in English literature. I have completed courses outside of college in writing for children and have tutored at a university level.
I have been an independent contractor since 2000. Clients include Penguin Group Inc. (USA)/New American Library, Random House, New York Review of Books, Chanticleer Press, and PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY magazine. My specific editorial production services include proofreading, cold reading, slugging/patch checking, index rekeying, and book reviews. This covers both fiction and non-fiction for trade and mass market imprints, book packagers, and magazines. I work with a broad spectrum of genre. I have a list of titles worked on available upon request.
Besides manuscripts, I have edited many brochures, fliers, newsletters, and college assignments for individuals. I use The Chicago Manual of Style, Merriam-Webster's dictionaries, and the Internet as my references. I am professional and dedicated, and I get jobs done in a timely manner.
