I made a few changes to my website – added new images, adjusted some text, changed the header, etc.

It's a work in progress. I'm not very techy and am open to feedback if anything doesn't work or looks off to you:

Hello all!

My dear friend Jane Barnes, a lifelong, prolific and highly dedicated writer who has been of great inspiration to my own artistic pursuits in this life, is looking for a copy-editor to work with her on getting her novel ready for publication! She writes:

"Do you know of a woman who could copywriter my finished lesbian novel?  I worked on it for 30 years and it's 200 pages long. I'm looking for someone furiously literary who's crazy about literature, music, language, possibly things French, and the history of the Twenties. Does anyone come to mind?

Copywriting includes proofing but beyond misspellings, having a look out for consistency, the right word, even a better way to write it.

Thanks for your time."

PM me if you want to take it on!

An achievement I'm proud of: In Nov 2021, GJ Kemp reached out for a copyedit, my first word-of-mouth client. Thanks to Francesca Catlow for the referral. 350,000+ edited words later, we're still working together! The snowball started here. 😁

Here's a quick tip I slipped to my writing craft group a few weeks ago.

Thought I'd share it with you.
Every day's a school day.

Here's an interesting typo by Sky News. I'd love to hear your views on how a total sonar #eclipse might manifest.

Yesterday I gave a presentation about becoming a freelance copyeditor to a group of 7th to 9th graders. This was through a partnership between Vermont Works for Women and the Vermont Virtual Learning Coop­er­a­tive.

Here's one of my slides that covers the pros and cons of the profession.
