I'm a writer and freelance proofreader based in Staffordshire, UK. I'm experienced with editorial processes at all levels, from blog-writing to book proof-reading to technical documents. I've worked in and adjacent to publishing for years, either as an author, bookseller, or reader. I'm experienced and confident writing for clients and did this for an international company for a year during COVID. When proofreading: - Produces a 'style sheet' to guide your work - Works with MS Office, PDF files, and Google Docs - Works to your audience and your needs I also have experience as a beta reader and I'm excited to work on books in development. My feedback is honest, actionable, and respectful of the author's intentions. When writing: - Years of experience of working to house styles and briefs - Works with MS Office and Google Docs - Familiar with working alongside editors and proofreaders - Confident with nonfiction (scientific reports; pamphlets; reviews) and fiction (YA; romance; fantasy) I'm eager to work with authors and publishers both in the long term and 'at need'. I can work to 'clean up' draft text as a proofreader or to help promote finished products by writing engaging and honest reviews.

Looking for the perfect proofreader has never been more difficult. While you work tirelessly, researching AI and sifting through dozens of freelancers, it's no wonder that things get overwhelming. So often, you can go without the guarantee of quality work. Here's where I can help. With a proven track record and excellent portfolio, followed up by a 100% Upwork Success Score, I can guarantee RESULTS. I have extensive experience working alongside successful businesses to take their written and visual content to the next level. My major clients include 'Kings of Translation" and "OCG TV", with whom I was responsible for scriptwriting and proofreading the entirety of their English work, garnering several 5 star reviews in the process. I can guarantee you: - Perfect and seamless proofreading from a Native English Speaker with a strong academic background. - Easy communication throughout the entire process, with spaced Zoom calls to discuss objectives throughout the contract (this has been incredibly valuable in allowing projects to run smoothly). - 100% Money back guarantee if the work is not completed to the agreed standard. Let's get started :)

Every author believes their manuscript is ready until a reader, a publisher, or a poor review proves otherwise. By then, it is too late. I get to your manuscript before that moment does. Most manuscript problems are not obvious. They do not announce themselves. They sit quietly inside the story, in the pacing that slowly loses readers three chapters in, in the dialogue that almost sounds natural but does not quite land, in the structure that made perfect sense to the writer but leaves the reader slightly disconnected from the story they were promised. These are the problems that separate a manuscript that gets shelved from one that gets finished, shared, and reviewed well. Finding them is exactly what I do. I work with indie authors, first-time writers, and publishing houses who have put real work into their manuscripts and now need a trained, precise eye to bring that work to its full potential. My deepest expertise is in romance and dark romance, where emotional pacing, tension, and character chemistry are everything. A romance reader does not just want a happy ending. They want to feel every obstacle, every almost moment, and every page turn in their chest. Getting that right requires more than clean grammar. It requires an editor who understands the genre from the inside. I am currently building my Upwork portfolio, which means right now every project I take on gets my complete focus and best work. You will not be one of a dozen active clients. You will be the manuscript I am thinking about, and that level of attention is something that becomes harder to offer as a freelancer grows busier. Here is what I offer: 1. Copy editing and proofreading that catches every grammar, spelling, punctuation, tense, and sentence structure error without touching your voice or flattening your style 2. Line editing that improves clarity, flow, readability, and tone so your manuscript reads as smoothly on the last page as it does on the first 3. Structural and developmental feedback that identifies pacing issues, continuity errors, POV inconsistencies, repetition, and narrative problems that quietly damage the reading experience before a single reader ever notices them 4. Editorial assessment that gives you a clear, honest picture of exactly where your manuscript stands and what it needs to reach publication standard 5. Track Changes delivery in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, so you see and approve every single change before anything is finalised 6. KDP formatting with correct margins, paragraph indents, scene breaks, and layout ready for both eBook and paperback upload Before I touch a single line of your manuscript, I take time to understand what it is trying to accomplish and who it is written for. That context shapes everything. I refine without rewriting. I sharpen your voice without replacing it. I meet every deadline, communicate clearly throughout, and flag anything that needs your attention before it becomes a problem rather than after. The result is a manuscript that feels like it was always meant to be a published book. One readers finish in one sitting, recommends it to everyone they know, and comes back to it when they want that feeling again. If you are ready to take your manuscript from well-written to professionally polished, send me a message with your genre, word count, and where you are in the publishing process. I respond quickly, and I will tell you exactly what your manuscript needs and how we can get it there.

I am a Japanese native writer, having contents published by various companies (from complex digital marketing content through to technical brochures), while also doing a number of individual posts in Japanese for personal interests (blogs and reviews). My strong native Japanese writing skills matched with my understanding and comprehension of English allow me to generate localized and accurate contents for companies looking to offer their services in Japan. With the Japanese people being very picky about content quality, this level of accuracy and localized nuances really help to not only add to the value of the base content, but also attract more exposure through sharing on social media and audience expansion through SEO. Having translated contents from Tech Crunch, internationally renowned local news services and assisting in localization of email/blog contents, I have had exposure to a wide range of industries and contents. My key focus is generation of high quality Japanese written contents, whether it be from scratch or translated/localized from English content.
