NOTE: these rates are not set in stone and are only an average for this editor. The actual rate applicable to your document will depend on the depth of the edit, the quality of the writing, the topic matter, the proximity of the deadline, the length of the document and several other factors.
I am an experienced copy editor and proofreader with affordable rates and quick turnaround. Whatever your requirements - from a quick edit to a complete rewrite, I can help make your project a success.
For the last four years, I have worked as a freelance editor for an authors' submission service, so I have had the opportunity to edit and proofread a wide variety of projects, all of which had to be completed quickly. Short stories, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and essays are my specialties.
I've also worked part-time as a proofreader for an international company, where I worked on numerous press releases and brochures. With my varied experience, I know how to adapt my editing to a client's requirements; your satisfaction is my goal.
I previously worked as a language arts teacher at a private school, where I was able to use my love of language and eye for detail to help my students revise and edit their work. I aimed then, as I do now, for clear, concise language that will draw the reader in.
