I'm looking for some copyediting advice myself. My wife and I just had a
baby and she's decided to stay home. Which is great, except that now
we're on one income. I'm an editor for a teacher-idea magazine but
looking for some extra income. My question is how do you get started
freelancing? I've got two years copyediting experience.

I really appreciate it,
Scott
