Experienced, eagle-eyed non-fiction editor (OUP, Penguin Random House). I'll ensure that your content stands out for all the right reasons!
“Elizabeth is a true wordsmith who has honed her craft in publishing and communications. She has always been my first choice as an editor and writer in the vast editorial talent pool available in London, due to her incomparable use of English as well as her positive and flexible attitude to work. Her ability to improve every piece of writing she edits is amazing and her original articles have lifted even everyday subjects to the exceptional.”
Louise Tucker, Freelance Project Editor, London
“Elizabeth undertook a major project for me in copyediting a very large and complex self-published family history. She managed to complete the edit to a high standard in just one pass, including not only the usual copyediting tasks but also fact-checking, stylistic improvements and creating a style guide. She incorporated into the edit suggestions (using Track Changes tools) for the author, querying all points of concern or ambiguity, and showed a particularly good eye for detail in regard to overall stylistic issues as well as minor details. Elizabeth met all the agreed deadlines, was a pleasure to work with and demonstrated impressive knowledge and expertise in non-fiction editing.”
