Member Profile:I am a professional proofreader and copy editor with a Diploma in Book Editing, Proofreading and Publishing. I am energetic, self-motivated and dedicated, with considerable experience in a wide range of areas. Born in New Zealand, I have lived in Australia (five years) and England (20 years) being successfully self-employed for 23 years. I returned to New Zealand in 2007 and I now work freelance, and would like to work personally with authors and writers. My key attributes are: * Exceptionally attentive to detail * Thorough, focused and professional * Adaptable and flexible. I am computer literate and have skills in PROOFREADING, COPY EDITING, TYPESETTING, LAYOUT, FORMATTING DOCUMENTS, PHOTO RESTORATION and BOOK DESIGN & LAYOUT. I have worked with MARIE GRAY (member NZSA Auckland), co-author of the book "... and then came the bridge." TESTIMONIAL: "I have known and worked with Adrienne Morris during the year in 2008 when she volunteered to help with the publication of the local history book entitled ... and then came the bridge. Without her multi-faceted skills in editing, photo enhancing, layout and computer knowledge, this book would not have the professional flair which has made it so popular in the community and further afield. Adrienne worked day and night to help meet a deadline set by the publishers. Her dedication to attain perfection was outstanding and with her keen eye she picked up many errors overlooked by me and my co-author. I recommend Adrienne in any sphere of publishing she chooses, and wish her well. It is not often one is privileged to work with such a singularly focused person." I have done proofreading for SANDRA ARNOLD (member NZSA Canterbury). TESTIMONIAL: "I think I'm a good proof reader, but Adrienne's eagle-eye still managed to find errors that I'd missed. She did a superb job of proof reading my PhD thesis and I was impressed with her commitment to the work, her conscientiousness and professionalism. I thoroughly recommend her services." I have worked with ANN RUSSELL (member NZSA Auckland) editing, assisting with Word formatting and proofreading of her book, and a cover design. I have just finished a COMPLETE BOOK DESIGN - everything from editing right through to proof-ready pdf files, including photo enhancement of 140 colour photographs - "The Subtropical Garden at Landsendt".
