About

Professional proofreading and editing Services at a competitive rate. Free five-page sample edits offered as standard.

I am a sole-trader based in Wellingborough (UK), providing a range of editorial and writing services and advice to the online writing community. I also extend services to my local area. My services are not restricted to a specific genre or field so whether you want a full editorial service on your novel, proofreading on your assignment or copy prior to submission, beta-reading, content for your blog or website, or help with reading and research for a new project, I am here to help.

I have recently completed a BA (Honours) History degree, through the Open University. I also hold an LAO Level 2 Certificate in Principles of Business and Administration. My previous employment is in sales administration, where I gained a City and Guilds qualification in Construction and Electrical Materials Distribution. This experience in administration enabled me to hone skills I acquired prior to leaving full-time education where I was awarded an A'Level in English Literature. I have excellent spoken and written communication, good organisational skills, and an eye for detail. You can be sure of a professional service at all levels.
