Stephanie Heilman – Editor

I work with authors to polish their manuscripts for submission to agents and publishers or for publication on their blogs and online magazines. I have edited children's books, genre fiction, and think pieces.

I also edit and proofread scholarly articles for publication in journals, and proofread monographs for professors of the humanities and social sciences.

I work with scholars, engineers, and other scientists from various industries to polish and publish their testing and materials standards. I copy edit, tag in XML, and proofread hundreds of technical standards each year. ASTM International publishes standards that keep consumers safe and ensure businesses are able to use the most efficient and greatest quality of materials and processes available.

I worked in acquisitions at Temple University Press, sending academic manuscripts out for peer review and preparing contracted manuscripts for transmission to production. I tracked down missing image permissions for authors, formatted their manuscripts, and did fact-checking when needed.

I worked in acquisitions at Penn State Press, sending academic manuscripts out for peer review and preparing contracted manuscripts for transmission to production. I tracked down missing image permissions for authors, formatted their manuscripts, and did fact-checking when needed. I signed two manuscripts in Literature as acquiring editor.

The bulk of the projects I worked with were in Latin American Studies, History, Literature, Religious Studies, Political Science, Gender Studies, and Animal Studies.
