                    Have Your Book Edited Today! Karin's books have been published by traditional publishers and some have even been honoured with a Notable Books listing by the Childrens Book Council of Australia or with Whitley Awards — Australia's most coveted natural history writing awards. Karin Cox sometimes also works with a team of talented editors and colleagues. Together they can edit your work quickly, so you can get on with the task of publication. Karin's team is hand-picked for editorial excellence. Having such professional and friendly colleagues in her editorial team enables Karin to negotiate editorial services for you at affordable rates and within a timely manner. It also means you can have both an edit and a proofread conducted on your manuscript should you desire, ensuring it is as error-free as possible. Remember, the more editors going over your manuscript, the better it will be.

                    While Karin will usually project manage your manuscript at the very least (particularly if it requires structural editing) and will always do a "final" editorial quality check, with your permission she might suggest having your work passed on to one of her trusted, specialist colleagues in order to avoid delays, edit specifically for your genre, or get your book into publication as quickly as possible.

                    Michele Perry. Field of interest: Children's Publishing

                    Before beginning her editing career, Michele worked on the opposite counter of the book trade as a children's book buyer for a large multinational bookstore. Her experience in choosing which kids books would sell and which wouldn't not only gives her an excellent sense of what will engage children, but, coupled with her passion and experience in editing books for kids, makes her the smart choice for editing your storybook, fairy story, junior non-fiction, or game-based activity book for kids. Michele has a Graduate Diploma in Publishing and Editing and has worked as a book editor for many years. Like many editors, she sometimes steps into the shoes of writer and she has written several successful publications for Steve Parish Publishing. You can view Michele's titles at www.steveparish.com.au/michele-perry  

                    Most of all, you'll find Michele a delight to deal with and a helpful guide on your road to getting published. She is a deadline-driven, uplifting, and extremely helpful editor for anyone wanting to break into the children's book market.
