Thank you again to all of my clients who kept me busy writing, editing, and completing other publishing-related tasks this year. Thanks to you, I have been a freelancer now for nine years and in the publishing industry for seventeen years.

I had the pleasure of working with large-scale clients as well as individuals in 2022. Some highlights included:

• Writing articles for Healthline
• Copyediting journals for University of Illinois Press
• Copyediting materials for Wolters Kluwer
• Obtaining permissions for Wolters Kluwer and the American College of Sports Medicine
• Helping individuals with book manuscripts, page proofs, dissertations, proposals, and more on Reedsy and through this website and Facebook

I am winding down the year today to celebrate the holidays with my family, but please reach out next year if you would like to collaborate on a book project. I am honored to be part of the process.

Finally, I will sign off this year with a quote from a grammar book I read this fall, which underscores why this profession remains so interesting year after year:

When I’m teaching grammar, I actually talk a lot about humility, because there are always surprises. You think you have a handle on things, and then you realize there are surprises.
