PROOFREADING MATTERS

Just step outside and scan the billboards and public signs, or flip through a magazine and you'll see them: the dreaded typo; the plural that isn't; the word swap; the double word; and it continues. I am dedicated to finding those blunders, from the simple to the catastrophic, and ridding them from your transcripts, novels, interviews, menus, brochures, and the like... My name is Marilyn Zelinsky. I have a bachelor's degree in music education from the University of Florida, but for the past 30-plus years I have worked in the printing and graphics industry - an extremely deadline-driven environment - as a proofreader, editor, transcriber, typist, and graphic designer.
