Doreen Kruger – Editor

I am an experienced, friendly and dependable editor and proofreader.

I am an Advanced Professional Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading, who has specialised in the arts, humanities and social science. But I have worked on, and am happy to consider, a wide range of texts - from the arcane to the mundane - from scholarly works to those aimed at general readers.

I can make your text clear, concise, coherent and consistent and enable you to meet your intended readership, while at the time same respecting your author's voice. I will follow your brief, listen to your concerns and deliver your project on time.

I work with publishers, academics, charities, public-sector organisations and individuals, including first-time authors. I am happy to work with those who don't have English as a first language.

A couple of recent comments from satisfied clients:
