About me

I am a certified proofreader and copy-editor, achieving a distinction grade in my diploma with the College of Media and Publishing. I have a passion for the English language and am rarely seen without a book in my hand!

​

As a proofreader and copy-editor it is my job to work with you to ensure your copy uses clear and simple English and is accessible to your readers.

 

Whether it's your short story, a newsletter, essay, website or your first novel, I would love to help you make it shine!

Why is proofreading and editing so important?

​

It ensures that we say what we mean to say and shows we care about our work. It allows us to make a good impression and can make your work stand out for all the right reasons!

Proofreading or copy-editing? What is the difference?

Proofreading

As a proofreader I would look at the spelling, punctuation, grammar, formatting and editorial style of your copy.

Copy-editing

As a copy-editor I would look at the structure of sentences, the flow and the use of language for your intended audience, check facts such as dates, names, times, calculations, etc, and also do a full proofread. Copy editing can be done to a variety of levels to suit your needs.
