Favorite referencing style

I don't have a favorite referencing style, but I have the most experience with APA.

Why I became an editor

I'm a nerd for learning and an even bigger nerd for detail.

Background and experience

I volunteer as a proofreader for Project Gutenberg.

Why I love proofreading and editing

Honestly, I just really enjoy making things right and correcting things that aren't. Being able to do it for long periods of the day with the added benefit of helping someone out seems like a genuinely amazing way to spend my time.
