Hello and Happy New Year as the case may be:

I am really excited to share that I landed a repeat contract with an educational publisher (Quarasan) this month. During the next several weeks, I will be a contributing writer/editor for a set of high school workbooks.

These projects are a nice step forward in my career. I've made a few sacrifices to get to this point, and there will be a few more before the contract is satisfied. Unfortunately, I have not quite realized my goal of independence through self-employment. Such as it is :)

With this update, I'm writing to ask for work. If you know anyone who's looking for a freelance editor/proofreader, please pass my name along. I'm also available to tutor language arts on afternoons and weekends.

Thanks for keeping me in mind, Friends. Don't let the September frost bite!

XO

T.
