About 

Hello, I'm Karen Selick, the owner of KeenEyesEditing.ca.  

As a freelance writer for more than thirty years. I've written hundreds of articles for Canadian newspapers and magazines, including the National Post, The Globe and Mail, and Reader's Digest Canada. I was a columnist for sixteen years at Canadian Lawyer magazine and won a couple of awards for my columns there.

In 1978, I got my LL.B. degree (Bachelor of Laws) from the University of Toronto and worked as a lawyer for almost four decades before retiring. 

I then reinvented myself with the help of this excellent book, "What Color Is Your Parachute?" It helped me figure out both what I am good at, and what I prefer to spend my time doing.  Click the picture of the book below to buy this at Amazon.ca.

These days, I assist companies and individuals in improving and perfecting their written documents, websites, and spoken presentations. I love clear communications, and I love the process of selecting the best words to express each thought.

Occasionally, I contribute articles to an online news and opinion magazine for whom I also do some editing.

I'm an experienced public speaker and I'm available to speak to groups about a wide variety of things. Contact me to see examples of some of my previous presentations.

I love technology and design work. I have produced animated videos for non-profit and charitable organizations. I am now offering whiteboard and cartoon-animated video production services to clients around the world.

I work from my home in rural eastern Ontario, Canada. 

I may also employ assistant editors or video producers from time to time on a contract basis.
