Why You Need an Editor

Companies/Organisations

• When you don't have time or resources for double-checking a document, independent support could make all the difference

• I am free of bias and can offer constructive criticism

• Hiring me releases your staff for other work

Authors

• If you're uncertain how to finish a draft, I can help polish it and bring it to a professional standard. As an author myself, I have been where you are

• You might lack confidence in your writing. I've edited countless pieces of text, and I can tell you if it is a good read

• Friends and family are helpful for checking your work, but I can give you unbiased, honest criticism

• I know the budgetary limitations facing many authors, and I'll do everything I can to keep your costs down while giving you a polished and professional draft

Individuals

• Whatever kind of document you're producing, I can offer independent advice based on two decades of experience

• A freelance editor can explain how sentences can be improved, how points can be made, and how to get your message across

Help When You Need It

Hiring a freelancer can be an important and costly step, and I want you to be happy that we'll work well together.

I offer free sample edits so that you can discover what a difference I can make and whether I am the right editor for you. If you decide that you want somebody else, I can point you towards other experienced professionals.
