About me

Editor and proofreader, used to working with entrepreneurs and authors

If you're looking for a skilled, friendly proofreader and editor with experience, I'm here to help. I understand the need to find an honest, conscientious editor, a person who will give your manuscript, book, blog or website the same level of care and attention that you have given it.

I'm a qualified proofreader who graduated from the Proofread Anywhere course. Since then, I have had experience working with content of all types, including fiction, non-fiction and web content.

I'm a Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP) and abide by the guidelines set out in their charter.

WHY CHOOSE ME

- I'm experienced in Word, Google Docs, Adobe Acrobat

* I work to the deadline with quality ensured

* Fluent in British and American English (Hart's Rules & CMOS)

* I have strong attention to detail, great organisational expertise, and a strong work ethic

Clients regularly offer me ongoing work after our initial project together, once they see I can be trusted to produce work of the highest quality and polish their manuscript, web copy or document to be the best it can be.
FICTION AND NON-FICTION BOOKS
Are you a fiction or non-fiction writer
I have worked on fiction and non-fiction across different genres, including:

- novels (especially mystery, crime, thriller, romance and fantasy)
- short stories
- non-fiction books (especially self-help, well-being, and women's health)

WEB AND BLOG CONTENT EXPERIENCE
Are you an entrepreneur or business owner with a website in need of TLC
I have experience editing blog- and web content for a variety of entrepreneurs.

WHAT YOU WILL GET
I'll begin by gathering your full requirements to ensure I deliver exactly what you need.

I will continue to communicate with you throughout our project and will deliver high-quality work on time, with full track changes and comments on reasons for suggested changes where needed. You are in control the whole time and do not have to accept all/any of my suggestions!

I always carefully read through text at least twice to ensure I capture as many issues as possible.

I will produce a style sheet, unique to your project, that details style decisions made (including grammar, spelling and punctuation). If you are a fiction writer, the style sheet will also include a descriptive list of characters, locations and the timeline of your book. This document will ensure consistency.

My rates strongly reflect the effort I will put into your project and the high quality of work I will produce. It takes time to carefully check copy for errors, flow, consistency and style standards; this type of work shouldn't be rushed. Don't pay low rates for editing; it equates to throwing money away as your copy will still be full of errors.

GET IN TOUCH
Please contact me if I sound like a good fit for your editing project.

I can't wait to see what you've got for me!
