About

I am a Copy Editor and Proofreader.

Since August 2016, I have created over 400 posts for my blog, The Magpie Gazette. In my blog, I explore subjects from current political and social events to technology, nature, and history, or really just about everything.

I enjoy reading about interesting ideas clearly expressed in precise language free from distracting errors. In my work, I put myself in the reader's place and imagine that the reader similarly enjoys a smoothly flowing experience.

Work Terms

I am available Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm.

I charge one cent per word for copy editing and proofreading; two cents per word to add fact checking and developmental editing; and three cents per word for rewriting in addition to everything else.
