I have more than 17 years of experience as a copy editor, editor and proofreader. I have been a freelance editor since 2008. <br />I have worked with students on their academic papers, as well as some college professors who hoped to have papers published in journals. I also have experience editing books, mostly fiction. I have also worked on legal documents.<br />Because I've spent most of my career working at daily newspapers where a fast turnaround is extremely important, I can provide someone with same-day service.<br />When I worked in Korea, I helped ensure that my clients' documents had correct grammar&nbsp;and spelling&nbsp;and flowed properly.<br />I am well-versed in AP and CMS styles.<br />I always conform to the client's specifications.&nbsp;I am a slight perfectionist, but only because I want to make sure the client's work is professional. It's all about making the client happy. And, of course, if the client's happy, I'm happy.<br />I have a strong love of the English language, and I want to help others discover that love as well.
