More information

I support the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation because I have worked as an apprentice jockey in the harsh world of the horseracing industry and found it (speaking on behalf of the horses) sorely lacking. I'd be interested in donating editorial services (pro bono) to those with firsthand knowledge writing to expose and put an end to the cruelty, doping, and disposable horse mentality that exist behind the scenes.

About Bookworm

Fairly recent history

My name is Cindy Corliss and I created Bookworm, Inc. in 2004. The publishing business is not my first career but certainly the one I'm best suited for. Before publishing, I worked for years in the laboratory of a major brewery which closed (no thanks to me, I hope). I've since returned to my roots.

Formative years

Andrew Carnegie “opened to me the intellectual wealth of the world” by way of his beautiful little libraries placed in small towns throughout the Midwest. Because of the local Carnegie library, I was introduced to the works of masters such as Charles Dickens, Alexandre Dumas, and Victor Hugo at a young age. Smitten by their genius, I've maintained a lifelong habit of reading and a love of books. So much reading has given me a discerning eye for detail and an ear for what “sounds” right.

Professional Membership

I am the secretary for the Editorial Freelancers Association where I attend meetings, create and keep the minutes, handle business correspondence, manage election documents and proceedings, and seek new ways to improve the organization.
