Hi, Erin!
Welcome to a wonderful world of "deranged perfectionists" who love books and
are motivated for very high quality. ;-) Let us know what you like to read
and work on and if you plan to scan or proofread. I do both and my husband,
Doug, a quadriplegic, proofreads. Our daughter, Nichole, is a passionate
member/reader.
I am approaching my two year anniversary and have had the pleasure of working
on around 500 books and cannot imagine having more fun doing something
worthwhile.
Welcome!
Valerie
