From Start to Finish Line
Before retirement in May 2025, much of my role as a paralegal at an intellectual property law firm involved proofreading. I'm one of the "nerds" that can find typos in menus, addresses, titles, etc. I am also a published author who utilized the services of a proofreader. Since then, I've been asked to read (not proofread) books that others have proudly published. In one case, I couldn't get past the first few pages because of the plethora of typos. So, I took the course to get certified to help others publish their stories or information in a professional way. It taught me a lot, I did all of the practice articles, and I got 100% on the exam--not because it was easy, but because I took it seriously. Everything was terrific. My reason for four stars is that I wasn't planning to be inundated by a lot of additional solicitations for more classes, official paperwork, how to set up the business, etc. With that said, I learned a lot and feel ready to help others get their information out to the world in a professional product. Thank you so very much. I highly recommend the program, advice, and support.
