Need a copy editor?

I’ve been in the communications field since the late ’80s when I wrote newsletters on the third floor of a dingy brick building in Boston. Fast-forward to today and you’ll find me in Cleveland, Ohio, where I offer proofreading, copyediting, and substantive editing services for a variety of genres—everything from fiction and creative nonfiction to history, biography, memoir, and more.

Here’s what I do

    • Correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and capitalization
    • Improve flow and syntax
    • Ensure consistency
    • Make sure timelines make sense
    • Flag questionable word choices
    • Cross-check numbered elements
    • Standardize notes, bibliographies, and references lists
    • Query anything that’s unclear
    • Create a style sheet for each project

My rates are competitive and align with those recommended by the Editorial Freelancers Association.
