Whoever said being a perfectionist was a bad thing? My talent is in taking copy and elevating it - not simply 'spellchecking', but editing with an understanding of language and how it works.
About me:
I have worked as a senior book editor and journals editor in the publishing industry for over 7 years, and have been working as a freelance editor and writer for over 5. Creating and polishing high-quality output in the English language is my passion, and I have the experience and qualifications to do it at the highest level.
Qualifications:
I graduated with a BA(Hons) in English Literature and Language from Oxford University, and have completed the following courses with the Publishing Training Centre:
Proofreading Skills - basic and advanced
Copyediting Skills
Grammar
Indexing for Editors
Work Terms
I am available to contact via email most of the time, and am happy to skype for particularly complex jobs in the evenings or at weekends.
I would prefer to work with clients looking for longer term arrangements rather than one-off jobs, but will consider any offers.
