Editing and proofreading your copy
For that professional touch

Error-free copy is critical to maintaining your company’s professional image. If your employees lack the expertise to spot grammatical and stylistic errors in your copy, your documents may be tarnishing your company’s image.

I have the expertise you need to make your copy sparkle. Whether you are a large corporation or a one-person shop, your written copy will benefit immediately from the improvements that I'll make to it.

Here's what I offer:

• Proofreading services
  When proofreading, I cross-check copy for minor oversights such as spelling and punctuation errors. I ensure that your copy is flawless before it leaves your shop.

• Copy editing services
  I copy edit your content for grammar, usage, spelling, and punctuation errors, as well as other mechanics of style. Depending on the needs of the client, I can use a light or heavy hand when copy editing.

• Stylistic editing services
  In stylistic editing, I work to enhance the clarity of your text, eliminating jargon, polishing language, and tightening phrasing.

• Substantive editing services
  In substantive editing (also called structural editing), I reorganize your copy for structure, logic and flow. In some cases, substantive editing involves a full rewrite or creation of original material.

Style manuals

I work with The Chicago Manual of Style, The Associated Press Stylebook, The Canadian Style, and The Canadian Press Stylebook, as per your request.

I offer professional substantive editing, stylistic editing, copy editing and proofreading services for white papers, online content, marketing brochures, newsletters, news releases and more. To learn more, contact me.
