22.01.2022 Editing? Proofreading? What's the difference? In simplest terms, editing means that I can give you advice on the structure, layout and content of your document. Proofreading is a final check of the mechanics of writing - spelling, punctuation, grammar. Putting yourself or your business out there without checking it over, may well mean underselling what you have to offer. So, if you think you would benefit from some feedback on your writing, contact me and we can discuss how I might be able to help maximise the impact of your documents.

20.01.2022 Editing my first thesis is proving a really exciting challenge. If you know someone who might need some help with their PHD, Masters or Honours thesis - especially if it is law related - they need my details. I hadn't realised the point of difference I could offer, having a Law degree, until I started on this project - the terminology alone plus the concepts, require a legal background that most editors would not have. So, if you know anyone who might benefit from my skills - please send them my way.

14.01.2022 Today I spent a few minutes reading listings in the front window of a local real estate agent. I found four blatantly obvious typos, three apostrophes missing and a word unnecessarily divided into two. Why anyone would choose to promote their services so publicly without proofreading is hard to fathom. Important publications need to be CHECKED OVER if you want people to take you and your business seriously.

08.01.2022 Sometimes people don't realise how they might benefit from the services of an editor/proofreader. For example, do you know someone writing selection criteria for their job application? Or perhaps someone who has spent months painstakingly pouring over their thesis? An objective, keen eye checking over such important documents is critical - don't lose points with your target audience simply because you didn't fine-tune all your hard work.
