Welcome
I’m an experienced, friendly editor and proofreader based in Norfolk, England. As a freelancer, I work closely with authors, publishers, academics and businesses to help fine-tune their writing. It’s something I love doing. I have a passion for the English language and a major obsession with getting things right. I’m happy working in a wide range of genres and provide different levels of proofreading depending on your needs. After all, every project is different, and every writer has their own style and way of working.
I’m very comfortable with both UK and US English and generally work in Microsoft Word or PDF. However, if you would like your manuscript proofread in hard copy, I'll annotate using British Standards Institution (BSI) proof-correction marks. It’s entirely up to you. As an Intermediate Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), I follow their Professional Practice Code. If you think I may be able to help or if you just need some advice, email me at [email protected] or use the Contact Paddy tab.
