English proofreading and editing services

I offer a complete English proofreading and editing service for business people, academics, and students.

I work quickly, get your documents right the first time, and can edit in either British or American style.

Proofreading

Proofreading is the critical process of making draft text ready for publication. Getting your text professionally proofread by a native English speaker ensures that your document is clear, logical, and a pleasure to read.

An essential part of my proofreading is retaining your original meaning. I take great care not to change points of meaning that are vital to your message, your scientific analysis, or your vision.

Developmental editing

Developmental editing (sometimes called content editing) helps you develop compelling material from the ground up. Think of it in terms of first having an idea for a story, sketching out this idea on paper, and then revising and enhancing this idea through several drafts. At the end, you have a complete, organized story with a beginning, a middle, and an end.

My developmental editing includes:

  • Meeting initially with you to establish your goals
  • Working with you to develop an outline
  • Ensuring that the content is adequate, logical, and flowing
  • Proofreading to correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation, and
  • Ensuring that the final draft meets the expectations of the publisher or intended audience.
