I am a freelance proofreader and copyeditor and offer professional services to authors, publishers, businesses and students.
I have recently completed the Publishing Training Centre’s ‘Essential Proofreading’ course and passed with distinction.
Additional recent training includes:
PTC: A copy-editor’s guide to working with authors. e-Learning module
PTC: Proofreading PDFs. e-Learning module
PTC: Essential Grammar. Course completed
CIEP: Word for Practical Editing. Course completed
I can work on-screen in Word using track changes and comments, on PDFs using annotations and comments, and on paper using the BSI proofreading symbols (or an alternative).
I am an Entry-Level member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading and follow their code of practice.
Recent work I have completed includes non-fiction books for a military history publisher, novels for an independent author and student dissertations. I am happy to work on projects of any size and most subjects.
In my previous life I worked for a variety of businesses and have ‘informal’ proofreading experience of sales proposals, presentations, reports, training manuals, web pages and other business material for many industries including IT, finance, HR consulting and leadership development.
