Introductions: Karen Szall

Hello and welcome to the Microsoft Press blog! I’m Karen Szall and I’m an editor with Press. I’ve worked in technical publishing more years than I will admit to, and I have worked across the spectrum of audiences. Over the last several years, I have worked most often on IT Pro titles. And why do I do this year after year? I love working with authors. It is wonderful to watch an outline turn into a published book and to participate in the creative process that makes it happen. I am in awe of our authors; they are smart, dedicated, incredibly overworked, and they seem to thrive under pressure. They are truly an amazing bunch and they produce some of the best books in the business.

With this blog, we are going to keep you posted on anything and everything related to upcoming titles, what our authors are up to, events, and anything we find that might be of use to you. Please feel free to join in and let us know what you think about any of the posted topics. We look forward to hearing from you. karsz@microsoft.com
