That was for a different book project/project manager from the same company, which I had to turn down in order to finish the last bits of my current project.
I don't fully understand the company's heirarchy and range of services. I do know it's
very broad. They're primarily a business management and software provider, but they have an editing/publishing arm that produces 1500-2000 books per year.
Within that publishing arm are multiple project managers competing for available vendors like me to work on various book projects. The PMs have some sort of list they consult for approved editors/proofreaders, and one or another may not have dug deep enough to find out if I'm currently working on a different project. So I occasionally get queries from different PMs asking if I'm available to work on
their project when I haven't yet finished my current project.
Y'know. The right hand often doesn't know what the left hand is doing. And so it goes . . .
