shveta_thakrar, long a proponent of diversity in literature, is raising funds to attend the Sirens conference where she is scheduled to host a presentation on "Magical and Monstrous Female Beings in South Asian Myth and Folklore." To do so, she is offering her copyediting and proofreading skills at reasonable rates. She also has a donate button if you're feeling generous and would like to help. Her
