I provide a checking and enhancement service for all
types of written material, from books to website copy.
I work on paper documents, using BS 5261C symbols, and on screen (Word or pdf), or can simply mark text according to each client's requirements.
All subjects are considered, but I specialize in academic publishing (languages,
history and theology) and in business/marketing
material. I have a degree in German and Norwegian
and offer translation from those
languages and proofreading of translated texts.
I am a member of the Society for Editors and
Proofreaders and the Federation of Small Businesses.
My clients include mainstream publishers, businesses, academic
organizations, students and individuals – anyone, in fact, who needs to produce written material that is accurate and well presented.
