Experienced Editor and Proofreader

I am a commissioning editor at an award-winning independent publishing house based in New Delhi, India. I have been working in publishing for over five years and have experience in editorial work of all kinds, including developmental editing, copyediting and proofreading. I have a Master's degree in Publishing as well as one in Psychology. The combination of these two fields of study gives me a unique perspective, with which I am able to look at content from the authors' and the readers' points of view equally well. As an editor my greatest focus is on authenticity, precision and consistency. My fiction expertise includes romance, literary fiction, historical fiction, short stories, and novellas. In non-fiction I am experienced in editing narrative non-fiction, memoirs, political non-fiction, works on popular culture, blogs, and books of social and political importance. I love to read historical fiction, romance, science fiction, literary fiction and feminist and political non-fiction. Attention to detail, efficiency and creative problem-solving are my strong suits.

"I hired Ishita to proofread and copyedit my journal manuscript. As an early career scholar, the initial publications are accompanied by many anxieties. Ishita was not only punctual and professional with her work, but her supportive attitude was a massive addon throughout our engagement. She has a keen eye for the editing style required for the concerned project. I would highly recommend her services. She is a skilled and informed editor, and I will undoubtedly be hiring her again for my subsequent publications. "
