Testimonials
Below are a few testimonials from authors and publishers. Please visit my website for more reviews.

It has been my distinct pleasure to work with Joyce for a period of several months during the autumn of 2012 in connection with the editorial process of my book. Joyce is a highly impressive copy-editor. She is competent and works very fast. Moreover, she is reliable, endowed with a sharp eye for minor, yet significant details concerning both language and argument, and possesses a truly stunning capacity for handling several languages at the same time (the book in question made use of references and quotations from French, German, and Italian authors as an integral part of the main text). Her essential contribution to the book ensured that the argument was not disturbed by unfortunate typing errors, misspellings, and the language difficulties that a non-native writer is always faced with. For the reasons stated above, I can therefore only give Joyce my warmest recommendation.

I had used several language editing services before a colleague told me about Joyce. My experiences with these former services varied, but mostly I was not quite satisfied. Luckily, Joyce accepted to edit my PhD thesis. Before doing so, she asked me to send a chapter from the thesis, to be able to assess the text. Together with her acceptance of taking on this large task, I got a detailed list of the various possible editing levels and prices. Then we agreed that the best service for this text would be advanced editing. I was very satisfied with the entire editing process. The edited draft was returned before the estimated deadline. Both I myself, and my supervisors, were very satisfied with the result. Not only the spelling and grammar problems were amended, but the English language as a whole was considerably improved. This was important and reassuring to me when I was going to submit my thesis to the University. Many thanks.

Joyce has worked on our titles since 2008 and has proved absolutely indispensable. Her manner, approach, work ethic, and skills are exceptional. To be able to work with a very knowledgeable, dedicated, and experienced copyeditor is something that cannot be taken for granted. To have wide-ranging experience combined with a good understanding of publishing procedures is very beneficial and valuable. Her reliably discreet and professional manner is unsurpassed. We know that the manuscripts and our authors and editors are in very good hands.
