Second blog posting

OK, it has been eight months and it's time to start using my blog. I am inspired by my missionary friends who post, allowing folks back home to stay in touch.

I'd like to share my passions for proofreading and editing and my efforts to expand my home business, The Lass Word Proofreading and Editing. I've joined a Christian Writers' Group and at this month's meeting the other members gave me good feedback on what I have so far for a resume and testimonials. I've also spent time on websites of other proofreaders, getting lots of good ideas.

I proof regularly for three quarterly regional magazines and several missionaries' prayer letters, and am beginning to edit websites and produce a newsletter for the MTW Japan Partnership. I have proofed six full-length books and many other smaller projects. As my friend wrote in her testimonial, I love people and love communicating!

More later!
