Working
Words Pro became a reality in 1997, after years of freelance and
full-time editorial work. All jobs undertaken by Working Words
Pro required a thorough knowledge of the style books listed below and other reference manuals. In addition, some projects,
such as Project Lead the Way, required knowledge and maintenance
of a statewide database of New York's middle and high schools
and districts. MS Access and MS Excel were used to create the
database. |
| Grant proposal maintenance necessitated extensive proofreading,
editing and managing of abstracts as well as page layout. Both
Pagemaker 6.5 and InDesign CS2, the newest of Adobe's page design
software, are used to prepare newsletters for commercial printing. |
