Subject:Independent Editors - What do they do? From:"Anthony Markatos" <tonymar -at- hotmail -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com Date:Sat, 25 Sep 1999 11:22:01 PDT
Qusetions to all listserv members:
I recently reviewed the STC independent contractor salary survey. It says
that the most typical task performed by independents is editing. Who is
going to pay big bucks ($40 - 50 dollars/hour or more)to do administrative
assistant work? (That is who typically edits my work.)
Am I missing something: a more sophisticated service that editors provide?
I seek responses for career planning purposes. All responses appreciated.
Tony Markatos
