Congratulations! It is a fantastic achievement to complete a manuscript and take the next step in the publishing journey: editing.
Editing is a collaborative process. I’m the right editor for you if you have written a general non-fiction work sharing your experiences or how-to instructions or other educational content. Or maybe your work is academic (social sciences or the humanities) and you’re a native English speaker or an EAL/ESL writer. I also work with long and short form business or corporate documentation, such as reports, website content, blog posts and other marketing material.
Contact me for more information.
Levels of editing:
No matter the level of editing you require, as a professional editor and your personal grammar guru, I will always check:
- If your text has missed elements
- That you have chosen the most appropriate words to communicate your message to your intended audience
- That your words are unambiguous, clear, and effective.
Which editing service is right for you?
Stylistic or line editing
Line editing is a more intense form of editing and focuses on improving the flow and readability of the text by refining the language.
Editors often combine line/stylistic editing with copyediting to help a writer produce a polished and effective piece of writing. If not combined with copyediting, it usually takes place first.
Want to know more?
Copyediting
Copyediting considers the overall quality and effectiveness of the text and makes corrections to ensure accuracy, clarity, and consistency.
This service is best for writers who are confident that their content is sound, and need help with the writing at paragraph and sentence level.

Proofreading
Proofreading is the last check of a text before printing and publication. Even after careful editing, some errors may still slip through and proofreading is the last opportunity to catch them.

Juanita worked with us recently as a copy editor, finalizing our paper for a scholarly academic journal. She was a pleasure to work with and her work was of a high quality. She is highly organized, thorough and with great attention to detail. The publisher’s style and formatting requirements were followed precisely. She provided a clear rationale for changes (beyond basic grammar and publisher requirements) and for suggested clarifications and improvements. Juanita also provided clear contract documentation, responded promptly to emails, and invoiced promptly. She was thoroughly professional and we have no hesitation in recommending her.
