This book was conceived for online delivery as a PDF. The content was collated from a range of the authors' blogs and seminar notes. I gave it quite a strong structural edit, moving bits around from here to there, as well as copyedit to integrate the two authors' voices and make it flow. I laid it out in Word, which was a fun project (for those who've played with automatic contents and section breaks, changing headers and footers, etc) and I also did some photo research to add some colour and interest.

The Keolis Downer Railway tender preparation process was an intensive one, with a large number of document components coming in from a number of departments requiring a very tight turnaround. I managed the editing and proofreading stage for all the tender documents. For this I was managing eight proofreaders, doing a lot of document traffic control, devising and implementing style guidelines and performing final checks of documents before and after they were typeset. The final submission contained: 13 binders and 4000 pages of text.

Since meeting Tendar, attending his meditation sessions and teachings and hearing his stories I was moved to try to help him raise money. I obtained free services from a graphic designer and a pre-production house, self funded the printing of this calendar and produced it in time for pre-Christmas sales.
