| Personal Biography | As a kid, Audrey loved working—and playing—with words, so when she landed a summer job at Harbour Publishing during her university years, she knew she’d found her niche. After more than a decade working in-house for Harbour, New Star Books, and Self-Counsel Press, editing books on a vast range of subjects, she moved to Victoria and began freelancing. Trade books and scholarly monographs make up most of Audrey’s projects, but she has also worked on annual reports, online courses, textbooks, and art gallery catalogues. She writes indexes and does developmental and substantive editing, copy editing, and proofreading. In 2007 she received the Tom Fairley Award for Editorial Excellence from the Editors’ Association of Canada. When she’s not working, Audrey still loves to read books and magazines that other people have edited. And when she needs a break, she enjoys getting out in the West Coast rain. |
