I was also the principal writer for Vocabulary A-Z for five years, during which time I wrote 9,000 database entries (definitions, context sentences, multiple-choice questions, and more). In addition, I've done an extensive amount of educational copy editing and proofreading, including student materials for Reading A-Z's and Science A-Z's monthly uploads. I'm intimately familiar with The Chicago Manual of Style and am a crackerjack copy editor and proofreader... Also, I have a writing partner who is an excellent fiction and magazine-style writer. We collaborate on Science in the News, a Science A-Z product. We also frequently work together on fiction/nonfiction paired passages... I've been in the fields of printing and publishing since 1980. My life changed in 2000 when I moved to Tucson, Arizona. I was hired by Morgan-Cain, the parent company of the online educational publisher Reading A-Z (which is now part of the Learning A-Z family of websites). I became the design/production..
