I have 30 years of copy editing experience in the newspaper field, including a prestigious Dow Jones copy editing internship.Much of my past editing work has been for newspapers, so I am well-versed in Associated Press style. But more recently my projects, including copy editing a magazine and manuscripts, involve Chicago Manual style. I have copy edited six book manuscripts, two in the past eight months, and am hoping to move into more of that work.I have 25-plus years of experience in book reviewing for newspapers.My goal is to build my book-review website, Rated Reads, to be the premier destination for those who are searching for "clean" books or for detailed information about the content of books that have been published in the past 15 to 20 years. Continuing to build the database of reviews and ratings, including my reviews and those of contributors. The site now has nearly 2,000 reviews.Self-published a memoir about mothering, "Full Hands, Full Heart, Full Circle: From New Mom to 'Just Like You, Mom.'" Outsourced professional cover design, copy edited book, paginated and chose professional printer. Marketed and sold book through web presence and at book signings at bookstores, gift shops and maternity stores.Working on increasing traffic to Rated Reads; always looking for more reviewers to post reviews.Specialties: editing for accuracy, grammar and style usage (whether Associated Press or Chicago); proofreading. Past work included headline and cutline writing and page design/pagination. Reporting, reviewing, editorial writing; creative writing for adults and young readers. Nonfiction writing. I love to research.

Founder, Editor, WriterRated Reads Jan 2008 - PresentI founded Rated Reads to provide a unique service to readers. Rated Reads not only reviews newer books, but it rates them for objectionable content, much like movies or television shows. Many readers would like to have an idea not only if a book is well written or entertaining, but also if it has objectionable content and what kind.
