Editing Services

To learn more about my memoir workshops, coaching and writing services go here.

I work with authors and organizations to help them refine text so that it conveys their ideas in a compelling way. I provide a range of editing services, including structural editing, stylistic editing, copyediting, rewriting and proofreading. I draw on a breadth of experience derived from the academic, private and non-profit sectors in which I have enjoyed long-term working relationships with both publishers and authors for projects ranging in complexity and frequently involving many contributors—designers, illustrators, artists, translators and/or multiple authors.

During my career, I have worked in Canada and the United States and am accustomed to shifting between Canadian and American English usage. I have also worked with clients in Europe, Asia, and Africa, many of whom are writing in English as an Additional Language (EAL).

When you feel like your text is ready to go, it is often a good idea to have one final review. I can proofread your document to ensure there are no embarrassing errors. At this stage, I prefer to do two readings: when possible one on paper and the final on-screen as this allows for the most thorough review.

I want you to make a strong first impression with graduate school and scholarship applications. In addition to this, I provide editing support for grant and fellowship applications.

Please note that I do not write application materials and I follow Editors Canada's Guidelines for Ethical Editing of Student Texts.

I provide support to students who want a second set of eyes to proofread and edit papers, theses or dissertations. 

Please note that I do not write papers and that I take plagiarism seriously. I follow Editors Canada's Guidelines for Ethical Editing of Student Texts.
