from the Authors and Editors:

Your Dyl index is superb!--Julie Van Pelt (UW Press)

I'm really happy with how it [the index] turned out - thanks for being so willing to work with me on perfecting it!--Joanna Dyl

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

Thanks so much for your help with this and for making it a semi-collaborative effort! . . . I'll definitely have you in mind when it comes to indexing [my next] book.—Arnie Cox

Thank you again for your help and superb service!—Andreas Kuehn

It is a pleasure always to refer your name to all colleagues and I think they will be lucky to get your excellent service.—Eid Mohamed

I think it's perfect! Thanks for adding such a professional touch to my first book.—Nicholas Roberts

Great! It looks a lot better than what I would have done!!--Sydney Hutchinson
