Statement
of Purpose:
The
Western New England Editorial Freelancers' Network is
an informal association of self-employed professionals who work with
words. Our membership includes editors of many types of publications,
proofreaders, indexers, researchers, and others. Many members have found
the network a valuable source of information and advice, a useful job
exchange, and a way of breaking the isolation experienced by many people
who work alone.
We are a local/regional group based in Western New England with a focus
on face-to-face interaction, and we serve clients nationwide and around
the world. We generally meet one evening every other month, currently at
the Jones Library in Amherst, MA. These gatherings may include a speaker or
focus on a particular topic of interest, but time is always provided for
informal sharing and networking. We also get together for more informal
drop-in lunches and other social events in the alternate months.
