Do you need documents or any written works proofed for spelling, grammar, puntuation and content? Experienced proofreading available. Quick turn-around time!
If I could, I would carry a red marker with me everywhere I go, in order to eradicate the errors I see on copy all around me! I am a person who is not only aware of, but some might say offended by spelling/grammatical/punctuation errors in public documents and professional signage.
I have a BA in English and taught at the high school level for several years. My students were drilled in correct usage and spelling, as I was a stickler for that. Since that time, I have edited/proofread three books, served as a newsletter publisher/editor for a non-profit organization for 12 years, and offered my availability on a volunteer basis to several individuals and organizations when they need copy to be edited. Even friends call me when they have questions about grammar.
I am a perfectionist and will give you and your editing work the same level of conscientious attention that I would give my own. I want your words to be effective and clear, as well as attractive and attention-getting. Whether you want your copy checked only for technical errors, or more extensively "shined up," I am capable of providing excellent service and fast turn-around time for you.
Most importantly, I view myself as a partner with you in a quest to make high-quality communication a priority in a world that seems to be bereft of that.
