Sarah M.
Structural Editing, Proofreading | Copy Editing, Indexing, with PhD
My passion for writing and research shines through in my extensive body of work, including numerous peer-reviewed articles and book chapters spanning a variety of subjects. As an author, researcher, and professional editor, I specialise in both academic and non-fiction work. With a keen eye for detail, I offer expert copyediting, proofreading, and developmental editing services. I’m also skilled in preparing and formatting indexes for books up to 100,000 words—ready for submission to publishers. I can ensure your index is polished and professionally presented. My special interests lie in psychoanalysis, philosophy, general non-fiction, and literary studies. With years of experience as an editor, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with diverse authors who’ve gone on to successfully publish their work. Additionally, my own experience in the publishing process—having navigated peer review myself—gives me a unique perspective on what it takes to succeed. This insight allows me to offer guidance and support that is both professional and tailored to each project. I am also the editor of a well-known journal of psychoanalysis, Lacunae, The International Journal of Lacanian Psychoanalysis. If you’re working on a writing project and would like to discuss how I can assist, I would love to hear from you! I’m committed to delivering high-quality, ethical work while ensuring a smooth, professional, and respectful experience for every project.
