I just came across this and had to share it. Yes it is sad that these prolific bloggers have died but I found the article very tongue in cheek - look at the quotes! - I even checked the date to see if it was posted April 1st :-)
I have been a freelance editor and proofreader since 2005 - before that I spent 10 years in the publishing industry working on both journals and books. I have 2 boys - aged 6 years and 6 months - and 2 cats as well as a long suffering husband.
