Introduction

"Thank you for your perceptive and sensitive copy edit (not least for pointing out that cheesecake is not on the Very Hungry Caterpillar’s binge list)."

Welcome to my page!

 
I am a professionally qualified editor offering meticulous, holistic, and stress-free proofreading and copyediting services to help you communicate your message clearly and accurately.

Academic services: I have been copyediting and proofreading academic papers since 2006, many of which have been published in the world’s most prestigious journals, such as Science and Nature. Satisfied customers include a Nobel Prize Winner.

General non-fiction: I also copyedit and proofread general non-fiction books. See here for some of the books I have worked on.

Business reports: Customers include a major UK trade association and some of Japan’s best-known companies.

Meticulous

My proofreading service will remove all grammatical, wording, and minor formatting errors from your text and ensure a consistent style while retaining your voice. Very few errors get past me! I also suggest improvements to the wording where necessary.

Holistic

I don’t just check the words, punctuation, and style. My copyediting service also looks at the bigger picture—how the narrative hangs together—and includes a basic fact check, giving you peace of mind that your work is accurate and reads well.

Stress-free

Working with me is stress-free and even enjoyable! If required, we can start with a video meeting to discuss your needs and answer your queries. I keep you fully informed of my progress while working on your document and also check that you have correctly incorporated any suggested changes.
