My copy-editing service lies somewhere in the middle ground between the writing process and proofreading.

During the copy-editing process, I check the following:

-are there any spelling mistakes, grammatical errors or typos?

-is there consistency in the language usage, style and tone?

-is the content up to scratch? Is it logical, is anything missing, does it flow well?

-are there any glaring factual errors or ambiguities?

-is it appropriate for the target audience?

-is it concise, have you avoided repetition and an overuse of exclamation marks?

Whether editing web copy, a student dissertation or a travel guide,  the end game is always the same: providing text which is clear, consistent and completely fit for its intended purpose.

If you suspect your text could benefit from a fresh pair of eyes, get in touch and I’ll happily have a look.
