Tim P.
Editor and Proofreader
I am a highly skilled editor and proofreader whose practice is based on a life of writing and teaching. My areas of editorial expertise include creative writing, academic editing, writing for education, and marketing communications. As a "life-long-learner," my reading encompasses contemporary and classical literature, history, philosophy, and science and technology. My continuously updated skillset rests on a solid foundation of writing and teaching practice that spans thirty years. I have written and published poetry, fiction, and academic scholarship. Moreover, having taught English at both the secondary and post-secondary levels, I am exceptionally adept at identifying and clarifying a writer's voice so that it effectively engages its intended audience.
