Proofreading and copy-editing services for authors.
 
To make the best first impression, ensure your manuscript is free from embarrassing typos, spelling and grammar mistakes.

 

I’ve been a writer for most of my life and have written on and edited a wide range of subjects.

I had an award-winning screenplay produced to film and am currently writing a novel. I achieved accreditation as a proofreader and copy-editor with Chapterhouse Publishing. I have studied many aspects of writing and copywriting with The Open University, First Take Productions (Liverpool), Liverpool Community College and The Writers’ Bureau.

 


Send your manuscript as an attachment and I will return a quote within 48 hours. Levels of intervention differ from client to client, so it’s important to show me what is involved before we agree a price.

 

 

Proofreading and copy-editing are specialised skills. If possible, give your work to a professional proofreader or copy-editor. A professional is able to read with a detached eye and intervene as heavily or as lightly as you want. If you feel you don’t have the time or inclination to do this yourself, contact me here for a free quote.

 

Proofreading is affordable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

'When a writer becomes a reader of his or her own work, a lot can go wrong. It's like do-it-yourself dentristry.'

 

William Collins
