Expert Editing & Proofreading Services: Fiction, Nonfiction, Academic

I help people express their ideas—clearly, creatively, and correctly. With 20 years of experience writing and editing professionally and a BA in English and history, I have the skills and expertise you need to make your document stand out from the crowd. As your trusted specialist, I will do these things for you: ✔️review your document (of any size) for errors and correct them, ✔️identify ways you could say things more clearly and concisely, ✔️help you refine and organize your ideas, ✔️aid you in targeting your ideas to your specific audience, and ✔️assist you with presenting your ideas in the appropriate voice and tone. Whether your writing project is large or small, personal or professional, I can help you make it better. I have worked with clients in the following areas: ✔️academic, ✔️business, ✔️personal, ✔️nonprofit, ✔️English as an additional language, ✔️fiction, ✔️nonfiction, ✔️self-publishing, and ✔️traditional publishing. In all cases, I have received the highest recommendations and warm and appreciative feedback. Reach out today to get my wordsmithing skills working for you! Two quick notes: 1. I am new to Upwork, but I am not new to writing, editing, and proofreading. I've been doing this for decades. My pricing is a bit low right now as an "introductory offer" of sorts until I gain some traction on this new platform. 2. For the past several years, most of my editing and proofreading work has been done through Scribendi. Because of Scribendi's confidentiality policies, I cannot use any of that work for my portfolio. I do, however, have a testimonial from Scribendi's senior manager about my abilities (see testimonials below).
