I am an experienced and qualified member of the Society for Editors & Proofreaders in the UK, a qualified editor and proofreader with experience of working in either UK or US English. English is my first language and I have a lot of experience with employers whose first language is not English.
My experience covers editing and proofreading of biographies and novels (fiction and non-fiction) for publishing companies and independent authors from various countries. I have also helped to develop and design several books. I have significant experience of editing and developing business documents for organisations. During my previous career in local government finance, internal audit and corporate governance, I gained an MBA (Distinction) and wrote, reviewed, edited and proofread over 1,000 reports.
All of my customers have provided excellent feedback on the quality, clarity and added value of my work. I have also been awarded ‘difficult’ projects due to my thoroughness and eye for detail. I pride myself on doing an excellent job, my reliability and meeting tight deadlines.
I can edit and proofread your work in Word with tracked changes providing daily progress updates. My services include editing and proofreading, working to or developing a style guide, suggesting improvements on consistency, style, formatting, layout, design etc.
I am happy to provide a free sample of my excellent services by editing the first chapter of your book.
