Grammar pedant seeks authors, writers and publishers who share her hate of errors.
I've been freelance writing and editing full time since September 2015, after a decade of teaching.
I work from home, which is in rural North Devon; fitting work in around my little family.
I love editing and proofreading because it's doing what I love (reading and mistake hunting!) and getting paid for it, and that's just brilliant! I read fast, but I am incredibly accurate. I work freelance for two big publishing houses and a smaller one, but when they're quiet I use Guru.
I am a good writer, with an ability to switch styles to meet your needs. I can write well-researched blog articles that are SEO friendly, original, entertaining and articulate. I write regularly for several niche websites - wedding, business and lifestyle.
Work Terms
Always like to keep busy, throw your work my way!
PROOFREADING:
I charge £22 per 1000 words for proofreading of shorter pieces & am willing to negotiate larger projects, as the standard and length of these vary so greatly!
EDITING:
I prefer to price these per project, based on the length of the manuscript and how long it will take. It generally works out at around £25/h.
WRITING:
I will write you an original, SEO friendly, 500 word blog post for £35.
