Melissa MacAulay – Editor

I'm a professional editor offering copy editing, proofreading, and developmental editing services to academic and non-fiction authors in the humanities and social sciences, broadly construed. I've edited books about history, languages, archaeology, art, literature, philosophy, anthropology, sports, etc. Previous clients have included independent academic authors as well as publishers such as Broadview Press, Routledge, and University of Toronto Press. If you have a non-fiction book (or article, funding proposal, dissertation, etc.), I can help you make sure that the writing is clean and polished, and that the ideas flow logically. I am not afraid to tackle new intellectual terrain; whatever your topic, I can take it on! I have experience working with clients who use British English, Canadian English, and American English, as well as non-native English speakers. I can also edit reference lists to adhere to whatever style you wish (Chicago, APA, etc.). Feel free to ask me for a sample edit to get a sense of my editing style before you commit. I look forward to working with you!
