Hello, and great to meet you! I’m a seasoned copy editor, proofreader, writer, and copywriter with a naturally sharp and, by now, also practised eye for detail. (I even edit billboards on the highway!) My English and Afrikaans language skills are superior, and in my work, I always aim for accuracy, clarity, and readability. My experience spans a range of fields, from medicine and research to biohacking, language learning, and education, and I always aim to tailor my approach to fit your specific needs. I furthermore thrive on learning new skills. Recently, I’ve been diving into Full Stack Development and Python to expand my technical expertise further, and I'm also learning to speak French (Oui!). Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) provide an excellent way to stay up to date with curated academic content. So far, I have completed the following courses: -Prompt Engineering for ChatGPT (Coursera) -Introduction to Google Search Engine Optimization (Coursera) -Making Sense of Health Evidence (FutureLearn) -Nutrition and Wellbeing (FutureLearn) -Start Writing Fiction (FutureLearn) My background in journalism and teaching also strengthens my ability to distill complex ideas into clear, accessible content. This allows me to write, rephrase, and edit technical content with ease. Thanks to my “OCD-lite,” I often deliver polished work on the first submission. For larger projects, I collaborate with a qualified copy editor/proofreader at my own expense to ensure the highest quality. I furthermore take pride in delivering excellent work that need no edits, consistently meeting deadlines, maintaining clear, prompt communication, and collaborating effectively with teams. You can view samples of my published work in my Upwork portfolio. If you’re looking for a meticulous editor, proofreader, or writer—and someone adaptable enough to wear multiple hats, if needed—I’d love to help! But before we discuss how I can contribute to your project's success, I want to clarify that I don’t provide free trials. I’m sure you understand why that wouldn’t be fair. Additionally, Upwork advises against doing unpaid work. I’d be happy to do a paid trial, as this approach has always worked well for both my clients and me. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello! I’m Margarita, a practicing professional astrologer and creative writer based in the beautiful, sunny Cape Town, South Africa. As the granddaughter of renowned South African poet Ingrid Jonker, I’ve inherited a deep appreciation for the art of language. With years of experience in astrology and tarot, I teach, write about, and consult on these subjects, running many successful courses in South Africa, including Astrology basics, advanced and relationship-based courses, an area I am most passionate about. I have also studied Jungian Psychology and blend what I have learnt there with my many years of consulting and writing all things Astrological. My practice has developed a loyal client base, and over the past two years, I’ve been dedicated to writing astrology texts daily—producing up to 3,000 words a day! This work has been one of my greatest accomplishments, all facilitated through Upwork. Regarding AI : whilst I think it's great for spell and grammar checks, when it comes to the nuanced field of Astrology, there's just nothing like a real human driving this knowledge. I also have a wealth of experience creating astrological content for dating apps, allowing me to adapt my writing style for both short and long pieces. In addition, I’ve contributed to blogs and have held a column in Odyssey Magazine. I write various articles for the popular Elephant Journal and have had a pieces published in a local magazine about the Baby Royals' stars and celebrity couples. I have writte (and still write for) many incredible apps & websites whom I have been working with for years and years. I am honored to sitll be with my clients & have. agreat deal of loyalty & integrity to offer. Writing is my passion; it’s what drives me and makes my heart race. I excel at distilling complex information into accessible insights. As a “logical creative” and an organized ball of chaos, I embrace the thrill of words and the allure of language, all while maintaining a relentless hunger for knowledge. I’m currently available for freelance writing projects and am eager to dedicate my time to your needs. With a fast turnaround, reliability, and a structured approach, I pride myself on being self-motivated and consistent. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you soon!
