- AUTHORS - Do you have an unpublished novel, nonfiction book, short story or article that you’d like to get published? I can help make your dream a reality.
Using Microsoft Word track changes and comments, I’ll edit and proofread your manuscript for typos, spelling, punctuation, and grammar; make suggestions for word choice, sentence flow, and clarity; and look for discrepancies and inconsistencies in the plot, chronology, continuity, and characterization; all while maintaining your voice and style.

Since October 2008, I have been the copy editor for two high-quality magazines, CityWoman (www.CityWoman.ca) and eatdrink (www.eatdrink.ca). I am also the editor, writer, and layout artist for a monthly newsletter for a nonprofit group.
I am a member of the Editors’ Association of Canada (EAC) and the Editorial Freelancers Association (EFA). I have completed a number of seminars and courses on editing through both of these professional organizations.
Please visit my website at www.PolishedProofreading.com for more information on my editing and to read testimonials from authors whose books I have edited.
I offer sample copyediting, at no charge, of several pages of your manuscript.

Who's Doing Cyber Monday?
I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.What about you?
Did You Shop on Black Friday?
There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.
I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.
I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?
So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?
Did you eat any of these foods at Thanksgiving dinner?
Since it's a busy time and an eating time, here's an easy poll to take in the left column. It's okay to pick multiple answers as long as they don't conflict. You can also leave a comment about a particularly favorite dish, if you wish.Morgan

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.
When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
