Editing projects and commissions
Book Sprints Limited – our project dates have been greatly affected by Covid-19 lockdowns around the world. 90% of our already confirmed Sprints were postponed pending new dates later in the year. Some are going ahead during lockdown/quarantine periods on a fully virtual basis with extended time frames.
I am providing copy editing and proofreading services for the following confirmed projects:
* Hewlett Packard project (during September-October)
* Cloud networking/troubleshooting modules for Cisco (during September)
* Red Hat digital transformation guide (during July & October)
* Red Hat OpenShift Security (completed during April with book & ebook sold on amazon.com)
* Technische Universität Berlin, exploring support for strategic and innovative campus development (completed during March – book available for free download here.)
Theatreview Trust – we continued working throughout Lockdown in New Zealand, keeping our writers informed about online performance viewing opportunities and encouraging them to respond on the website. Live performance reviews began appearing again during September.
