I see it from practice :) I went to journalism school and we practiced in classes. (And I tried to report every error in our school newspaper.) And I've helped edit probably a couple thousand pages of books and documentation. Sometimes I do it professionally. I don't know what to charge though as I have charged in the past based on my open source Unix consulting rate. I have also paid for book editing. But I don't know what it broke down to hourly. > [clip] > > p.s. I recently read Shepard's book. Your book is a good supplement to it. > > What is Shepard's book? This new LyX book has it in referenced. It is "Aiming at Amazon". Jeremy C. Reed
