My mission is to bring quality copy editing and proofreading to help authors, students and academics better articulate their ideas and work.
I have a passion for proofreading of non-fiction work in science and medicine, but am also proficient in fiction, business documents and websites. I am a member of the Society of Editors and Proofreaders (UK).
For portfolio, see below plus:
Three yet to be published books are: "Win over Anger: How Anger Changes our Thinking" (due to be published by the American Bar Association) by Nicola Hartfield, "What if Mao Could Wake up Today" by Lei Shi (due to be published by SBPRA) and "The Or ’in of Tane Mahuta" by Yvette Carol (due to be published early 2016).
Please note that the summaries of Brigid Curran's books on Amazon.com were not proofread by myself, and they are no reflection of my proofreading standards. Both books were self-published.
