Tentang Saya
My expertise as an English editor & proofreader for fiction and non-fiction books has grown over 28 years while freelancing and previously teaching & marking pre-tertiary English. I’ve been immersed in the correct use of grammar, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure & paragraphing over decades. Double majors in English plus a lifetime of reading enhance my natural skill in word choices. Sensitivity to English nuance, your intended audience, and your desired tone are central. For readability, I like to chat about issues revealed in the edit. My professional organizational skills and work ethic will support our work together. And I like returning a text that delights on time. A recent review by a 6-time novelist client says: “She is an excellent person and highly skilled in her field. I have recommended her to my author friends as well and will continue to hire her for my future books. Thanks a lot Deborah for all the help.” Look at my Portfolio Items for samples of how I use MO’s Track Changes to suggest changes & corrections. Look at my excellent Reviews below that. And, look in the Publications section at the very bottom for some of the books I have edited. I look forward to working with you!
