About ChristopherStanners

Over 15 years’ experience of copy-editing, proofreading and project managing editorial jobs of all sizes. Happy to tackle most subjects. I’m also a comedy writer with material regularly broadcast on BBC radio so I can even add jokes if you want me to!

Since going freelance in 2017, I have completed a variety of editing projects for many different clients. Recent jobs include editing novels, reports for non-profit organisations on social justice and environmental issues, and games instructions. I have also written fun content for quizzes and games.

I have built up significant experience in academic proofreading, working on a wide range of journal articles, dissertations and theses up to PhD level, and books including multi-author works. Many of these projects have involved dealing constructively and sensitively with text written by non-native speakers of English.

Before striking out on my own, I worked in the Creative Services department of Coachwise Ltd for 11 years and managed a huge number of editorial projects in various media, so I am experienced in dealing with clients, designers, authors and other contributors.

Most of my work for Coachwise was related to sports coaching in some way. Satisfied clients included Sports Coach UK (now UK Coaching), 1st4sport Qualifications, the Association for Physical Education and the British Horseracing Authority.

I am a Professional Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading, and I am keen to continue taking my editorial skills into other areas, especially those that involve my personal interests of comedy and music.
