| SAMANTHA RIDEOUT Editor & Book Publicity Assistant |
"I'm a freelance magazine writer, editor and translator. My work has appeared in the UC Observer magazine,
the Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph and La Scena Musicale. I also freelance for Reader's Digest magazine as
an editorial fact checker and researcher. My university degrees are in journalism, world religions and Icelandic literature.
Before I decided to work with words, my adventures ranged from cattle farming to teaching music.
As a curious person, I love to travel, explore cities, meet new people and of course, read day and night.
I'm very pleased to be joining the Substance Books team as the Literary Marketing Assistant.
I'm looking forward to working with the authors and discovering some great new books to read."
