Hi, I grew up in the publishing industry (14 years) and loved every process/ corners/ nuances in roles of a Technical writer-senior copy editor-developmental editor-editor. The best part was reading... reading... reading. Another aspect was the interaction with authors and a glimpse into their perspective. Family required my attention, so took a sabbatical to head that department but kept the love for content going via freelancing projects. I write blogs and do legal reviewing as well.

It was a wonderful baby of mine. Being an IT book, it involved editing not only the content by sometimes checking the codes. There were several magazines I worked for -- ranging from children's magazine to management articles.
