Services
I offer friendly and professional proofreading, copy-editing and writing services, specialising in natural history and science.
As I writer myself, I understand the time and effort that goes into a piece of written work, and I aim to work with you to ensure that your work is as clean and clear as possible while still retaining your unique style and voice.
How can I help you?
I offer proofreading and copy-editing services for the following:
- Books (fiction and non-fiction, including ebooks)
- Coursework, dissertations and theses
- Scientific papers
- Websites
- Magazines
- Articles
- Reports
- Newsletters and brochures
- Blogs
Depending on your requirements, I can work on paper using BSI proofreading symbols, or on-screen using the Track Changes function in Word or the comments and mark-up tools on PDFs. If you are not familiar with proofreading symbols, I can mark up your work in a way you are more comfortable with.
If your first language is not English, I can help edit your writing so that it reads as if it was written by a native speaker.
For websites, I also check that text is optimised for SEO and is web-friendly, and ensure that all links work and direct to the correct pages.
As a scientist myself, I am able to offer an extra level of expertise for science-related material, such as checking that Latin names have been used correctly, that referencing is accurate and consistent, and that any terminology used is correct.
