Senior Academic in English

I have a PhD from Sussex University (UK) and worked as a Senior Lecturer in English Literature at the University of Lincoln for 6 years, specialising in twentieth century and contemporary literature, culture and theory. I am an expert in the teaching, writing and editing of academic work. I have published widely in both academic and non-academic spaces (see link below for indicative publications), and also have years of experience as a proofreader and editor. I offer the following skills, to an exceptional standard: - Academic and/or creative mentoring - Proof-reading - Editing - Stylistic suggestions and input - Reference converting (e.g: Chicago to MLA) - Factual, creative and/or stylistic advice if the piece deals with literary themes or is a piece of non-fiction in my areas of specialism: affect, music, sexuality, contemporary culture, feminism, queer theory, popular psychology. I look forward to working with you! Please see my Portfolio for a link to my web-page which gives a further sense of my offerings. Or get in touch if you have any questions.

Testimonials

Endorsements from past clients

"I wrote the following about Ruth's skill and expertise in my recently published book, "Ruth C., my brilliant editor, read ever single word of this book with an incredible level of care and precision. An author herself, she not only provided me with thoughtful comments, but also shared her knowledge of academic publishing and guided me through the entire process." Ruth truly is an editor extraordinaire, she is punctual, fast, and respectful of your own writing style. I wouldn't be half the writer I am today if it weren't for her guidance and encouragement. "
