With more than 10 years of editing and proofreading experience, a sharp eye for details, an extensive understanding of grammar and sentence structure, and numerous positive reviews, I offer quality services that you can trust. I specialize in short-form copy of 100 pages or less, but will also consider larger projects. Whether you have a one-time project, an on-going project, or would like to be a long-term partner, I will help to ensure that you are happy with your writing and ready to share it with confidence.
Simple Service Options
My services are simple and easy to understand. Choose between two service tiers: proofreading/copyediting or developmental editing.
Proofreading / Copyediting
I will thoroughly check your work for spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure errors, etc. I will also make recommendations to improve word choice and clarity.
- I will make corrections and highlight the amended text using Microsoft Word’s “Review” feature to provide explanations (sparingly or comprehensively, as preferred) in the right margin.
- If requested, I can instead highlight texts, refrain from making any edits, and provide detailed recommendations in the right margin.
- I can implement a combination of the two approaches above.
- If requested, I will turn on “Track Changes” and “redline” all edits.
- If there is another way that you would like me to make corrections and/or provide feedback, please let me know.
Developmental Editing
In addition to standard proofreading / copyediting, I will also help you with the overall structure of your work. I will help to make sure that your writing is clear, makes sense, and flows well from start to finish. I will make sure that citations and references are correct (please let me know what style guide you are following), that all web links work, that your work is well-structured and well-organized, etc.
Quick Delivery
Generally, expect a turnaround time of 1-2 days for smaller projects and up to 5-10 days for larger projects (depending on my workload). If the project is especially large (e.g., a lengthy book), I will let you know up front if my turnaround time is likely to be more than 5-10 days.
