My background and qualifications

Author: 

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Since I have volunteered to do editing to assist authors, I thought I should supply my credentials. My career spans both management assignments in the IT area of a large corporation and university teaching in a school of business. I have written four books: one on statistics, one on data base principles, one on information resource management and one on cooking (a 200 recipe collection that keeps expanding). I am a self taught speed reader and a compulsive editor. I have worked with several authors on Top Shelf, and have thoroughly enjoyed the activity ( and the authors seem to like what I have done).

I am retired from both of my jobs, although I do a little tutoring (currently helping a Venezuelan exile who needs to improve his communication skills), but my retirement means that I can respond quickly to editing requests. I won't mention the names of the authors with whom I have worked, because I feel that any help I can give is repayment for enjoying the stories (and it's their business).

I always ask for Don's help

As soon as I started writing Don kindly offered to help. Now I won't publish unless I know he is going to check it. He is also very kind to mistreated comma's :)
