Hi there, I’m a native English speaker based in the United State With more than 19 years of expertise as a professional editor and proofreader. My passion is to take a piece of writing and help the author forge it into the very best it can be, working together to take any weaker elements and strengthen them into a masterpiece. Whether it's a basic proofread you're looking for or something more in depth, I can help. Services: Proofreading - The final quality check before a manuscript goes to print, fixing any typos, punctuation errors and grammatical errors. I will also check for consistency in elements such as indentation, spacing, headings, etc. and am happy to work with both American English and British English. Line Edits - A more in depth check than proofreading, I will look at the structure of your sentences for any areas that could be tightened up, better word choices, telling where you could be showing, word repetition, etc. Developmental Editing - The most in depth level of editing, where I will work with you to enhance the structure of your manuscript, focusing on plot, characterisation (or characterization in the US!) and pacing. Get in touch with me soon. Best regards, Sandra
