A classmate in college did indexing on the side. I remembering her mentioning how she could always tell when an author did the index instead of a professional. I finally understand now what she was talking about when reviewing your index. Thank you. It’s marvelous.--Trevor Bond

Eileen Allen ... has worked with me on both copyediting and indexing projects for IUP, and I recommend her highly. She has comprehensive knowledge of Chicago style and is meticulous in applying it. As a copyeditor, she can simultaneously tend to mechanical details and the broader narrative needs of a manuscript. In addition, I’m impressed by her skill as an indexer, especially her ability to make sense of complicated text while still managing its granular elements.--David Miller (IU Press)
Indeed, Sid and I wanted to be sure to use this e-mail as an opportunity to extend our deep and sincere gratitude for the fabulous job you did copy-editing this volume. I have worked with a number of different copy-editors, and I feel comfortable saying this has been one of the best and most rewarding set of copy-edits to work through. Your attention to detail is very commendable, and across the board I believe each chapter has been made better by your small but important suggestions. The book feels even more whole than it did several months ago, so thank you!—James Gilmore
I found you to be a conscientious, thoughtful indexer who gave the book a close reading and developed an index that not only assists readers but reflects the larger argument of the book. And, . . . you're prompt, efficient, and easy to work with. . . . I'm definitely glad I didn't attempt this myself—Alex Stefaniak
Oh gosh the index looks really great. . . the time I spent with it during the past week gave me a lot of confidence in its strengths. . . . Again, many thanks for your work, Eileen. I really appreciate this opportunity to work with you.--Agatha Beins
