I’ve spent about half my career in magazines and half in digital media. I was the Editorial Director for an award-winning nature/outdoors magazine in Texas for five years. As a freelancer, I’ve successfully completed hundreds of editing projects, including everything from business books to wedding speeches. I also have extensive experience working with alumni magazines, nonprofit organizations, NGOs, consulting firms, and think tanks. Here’s a snapshot of my standard editing services: • Checking grammar, spelling, and punctuation • Improving clarity and flow • Using Microsoft Word’s Track Changes function or Google Docs’ Suggesting function to make it easier to see all edits and approve or reject them • Providing feedback on issues such as organization, presentation, and logic • Ensuring adherence to your organization’s in-house style guide or other guidebooks such as the Associated Press Stylebook (AP), the Chicago Manual of Style (CMOS), or the APA Style Publication Manual My standard flat rate for editing is 3 cents per word. If you need high-quality, professional editing, I’m just a click away.

As a proofreader and copyeditor, I edit novels and non-fiction in British English and US English. A professional member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading, I received a merit for their Proofreading 3 course. With many repeat clients, a few of my 5* reviews are below. Proofreader of 14 Community Magazines: "My go-to proofreader; I've been working with Becky on and off for over a year now. She's an excellent communicator, very reliable - she always delivers on time, and working with her is a stress-free process. Her work is of excellent quality and it's always disappointing when she's unavailable for one of my projects - it's difficult to find someone of her caliber!" Copyeditor for an Economics and Business Publisher: "Becky did a brilliant job of editing a high level of output and her communication was excellent. Highly recommended copyeditor!" Proofreader of 16 Historical Spiritual Fiction Books: "We are very satisfied with Becky's work as the proofreader for several of our historical fiction books. She has consistently demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and professionalism. Every deadline was met without delay, and communication was always prompt and reliable. The quality of the revisions reflected both care and expertise. It was a pleasure to work with Becky."

I am looking for projects that will combine my writing and editing skills in legal, academic, and creative writing.

I am a scholar of Communication Studies (Ph. D.) and former professor of persuasion with over ten years of experience teaching and publishing academic research at three American universities. I have six peer-reviewed publications at journals related to communication studies, media, and environmental communication. I've also worked with past clients to copy edit and develop submissions to journals associated with management studies, psychology, public policy, philosophy, and other fields in the social-sciences and humanities. In addition to writing for an academic audience, I’ve worked with a number of industry professionals from a wide range of specialties to produce industry white papers and online materials for a public audience. I pride myself on my accessibility and demonstrated ability to produce high-quality deliverables on a deadline. I can almost always reply to client messages within two hours (between 6 am and 8 pm EST). Given advanced notice, I can often provide considerable manuscript revisions and complete full length draft projects within 7-10 days. I am happy to have a brief pre-contract (free) onboarding call. Please message me to schedule.

I graduated from the University of Michigan-Dearborn with a B.A. in Journalism in December 2013. I have worked as a freelance writer and editor since 2012. I have flawless grammar skills, great attention to detail and a strong command of AP style.

Have you written a novel or short story and are unsure if the story is complete? What about your characters--are they fully developed? Will your conflicts keep the tension high and keep your readers turning pages? If you're not sure, let's talk about a developmental edit. Have you written a nonfiction book or article but are unsure if the whole thing makes sense from start to finish? Are your ideas fully fleshed out, or are there gaps that your readers may fall into? Let's talk about your content and your organization. Have you written something--book-length or not, fiction or nonfiction--and you're confident about the big-picture elements but you're not sure if your writing style is strong enough for publication yet? Do you think your work could use some help at the sentence and paragraph level? Let's talk about a line edit. Are you "this close" to publication but you want another set of eyes on your work, just to ensure there are no typos, grammar mistakes, or missing words? Let's talk about proofreading. Since 2011, I've been helping my clients polish their writing, and I'd love to talk to you about yours. Prior to freelancing, I taught high school and middle school English and spent many years as a newspaper reporter and editor. I've got the experience and the education to help you. I know grammar rules backwards and forwards, as well as both the Chicago Manual of Style and AP style, and I have no problem meeting deadlines. Your manuscript, paper, article, or email will shine when I'm finished with it. I welcome your questions and am looking forward to learning more about your project!
