Lisa Mendes – Editor

Dedicated to adding value and making your manuscript as flawless and smooth flowing as possible.

Friendly, professional non-fiction and fiction proofreader/editor with 10+ years of experience.

Specialise in non-fiction, especially history/educational/reference/health and wellbeing, and MBS/New Age (astrology in particular).

I also have 10+ years of experience proofing accounting/finance/business management study texts, thanks to an ongoing freelance relationship with a London-based publisher of professional education study materials for organisations such as CIMA, AAT, ACCA etc

I have also authored and/or edited four non-fiction books under my own name, and am a member of the Society of Authors, and have worked with several London-based publishers, including Elsevier, Eddison Books, Duckworth and BPP Learning Media.

I also work as a researcher on biographical and historical books, my most recent project being 'Under the Rainbow' for the EW Cole Foundation in Melbourne, Australia.

Recently, however, I have forayed into spy fiction, short stories, and biography as well as political and local histories. More details in the portfolio and client reviews sections below.

One of my specialities is helping non-native English speakers to polish their manuscripts for the English-speaking world.

Additional skills include: Picture and archive research, Photoshop for cover design, eBook conversion etc
