Overview
As I review your manuscript, I make copy editing changes so that the style is consistent, the sequence and flow make sense, and the grammar and punctuation are correct. I provide comments or queries with kindness and curiosity. This is the final polish of your manuscript, and my job is to make sure your writing shines with clarity.
I have over two decades of editing experience, including seven years in legal publishing, including at LexisNexis and the Judicial Council of
California. For five years I was a freelance copy editor of books in the arts, humanities, and social sciences for Oxford University Press.
I understand it can be challenging, as a writer, to be faced with a series of detailed changes at the sentence level when you've been focused on the broad view of your work. I keep this in mind when making comments or queries, using a respectful approach. I look forward to working with you!
