EDITING AND PROOFREADING "Editing
should be... a counseling rather than a collaborating task. The tendency
of the writer-editor to collaborate is natural, but he should say to
himself, “How can I help this writer to say it better in his own
style?” and avoid “How can I show him how I would write it, if it
were my piece?” |

I have a passion for style and an obsessive eye for accuracy. My abilities range from proofreading to substantive editing. I am especially experienced in editing text written by non-native speakers of English. I gained this experience during a 5-year residence in Zagreb, Croatia, where I worked as a freelance editor and translator. I continue to edit and proofread on a regular basis since my return to the UK. I have edited / proofread the following types of documents: - academic
journals
