• Finishing up editing a nonfiction book (public policy) for a self-publishing author (he does a lot of speaking and this is a back-of-the-room book, so he'll make money on it). Next step is design and composition. • Just finished editing a religious tract (a back-of-the-room book for a lay preacher). Next step is composition (furnished design). Second book on the way following that. • Three-fourths of the was through a developmental edit of a third-party software manual for a major publisher. • Handling US logistics (mostly minor clerical tasks) for a Panama-based author whose philosophy tract I did the composition on and which was just shipped from a printer in Hong Kong yesterday. • Putting together queries to literary agents on behalf of the author of a self-help/spiritual book. • Have a novel ms. on hold for editing until I get a chance to dig into it. There are also half a dozen other potential clients who have promised (for what that's worth--no checks yet) that they want to work with me when they finish tweaking their manuscripts. One or two of them might materialize. So I've got no complaints.
