About Pendley’s Pro Editing & Indexing

“Word Nerd”

Skills & Experience

Skills & Experience

When I was given a manual typewriter at the age of 10, I discovered my love for words and imagined my future as a novelist. However, I soon abandoned my word-loving ways for steady work in finance and earned a bachelor's in business management with a minor in accounting. Several years ago, I returned to my Word Nerd calling by becoming a freelance copy editor, proofreader, and creator of back-of-the-book and embedded (hyperlinked) indexes. Since then, I've completed many courses, including the specialized copyediting program at UCSD and UC Berkeley’s Indexing Theory and Application.

 

🚫 I do not edit/index horror, religious, supernatural, erotic, or political material, nor do I review books for my clients.

Skills & Experience

Organization, efficiency, attention to detail, and dependability are crucial skills for a

copy editor/indexer and are among my strengths. I've worked on everything from children's literature, fiction, and résumés to self-improvement/health books, blogs, and memoirs in Word, PDF, Google Docs, and PowerPoint. Using the style guide of your choice, I will ensure your piece shines.


Pendley’s Pro Editing & Indexing is a certified woman-owned small business.

My references attest to my determination to ensure my clients are completely satisfied; I take pride in helping produce the most professional work possible.

 

I'm not happy unless you are happy.


As a lifelong Southern California resident,

I’m familiar with common US customs

and Latino culture. 


For the last couple of years, I've been ASI's indexer training course administrator. I have served as treasurer of SD/Pen, been an elected member of the EFA Board of Governors, and have judged ACES headline contests. When not working, I enjoy time with my family, walking my rescue dogs, and being a volunteer Bible teacher.
