Paul W.
Proofreading, copy editing, developmental editing
I am a native British English speaker living in the UK, though I am also fully conversant with American and Australian English and am comfortable working in those language variants. I have over 17 years of experience in writing, editing and proofreading all manner of fiction and non-fiction books, including fictional crime and romance novels, true life adventure stories and fantasy books aimed at the young adult market. I also review and copy edit technical and non-technical reports, articles for professional journals, commercial and public information material, and other documents. I am happy to accept your work as either a Microsoft Word document or as a PDF, which will be reviewed and marked up using MS Word tracked changes and commenting tools or PDF commenting tools, as appropriate.
