For businesses

Don’t let your readers stumble over complex constructions or accidental spelling mistakes. Poor language and incorrect grammar can unsettle clients, causing your competitive edge to dissolve in an instant.

 

Let me check any written material that represents your business for spelling, grammar, consistency and meaning to ensure that you are communicating your message clearly and effectively.

For self-publishers

You’ve crafted your writing and read and re-read it. You’ve re-jigged and re-written and you can’t bear to look at it one more time. Or, you have a story to tell, you’ve captured its essence but writing isn’t your strong point.

 

Now you need a fresh pair of eyes. I will carefully fine-tune your work paying special attention to inconsistencies and ambiguities, repetition and convoluted constructions while also ensuring your grammar and spelling is spot on. Your writing will be returned to you looking as though you wrote it, but somehow better.

How much will it cost?

Every editing and proofreading project is different and fees vary according to subject, the writer’s facility with English and the type of editing required. Send me a sample (or the whole document) so I can get an idea of what may be involved. Let me know its title, the number of words, and when you would like the editing to be done (start and completion dates). I’ll get back to you with a firm idea of costs and to discuss the scope and specifications of the project.
