About me I'm a freelance editor and proofreader working for up to eight different clients, including a well-established well-respected UK publisher of non-fiction. I've been with Upwork since it was two separate entities – Elance and o-desk. Regular work is negotiable. All pitches are tailored to suit the job posting. However, please check my *minimum* rates below before inviting me to pitch for your work. As the majority of my work on Upwork is protected by NDA, I am unable to provide samples. I am, however, prepared to provide a paid sample. Minimum rates My editing and proofreading rates *start* at $10 per 1,000 words rounded up. For this you get two Word files (one clean, one with tracked changes). For Google docs/sheets, add on 10%. Paid samples: $50 flat rate for up to 5,000 words. My *minimum* fee is $100, not negotiable. So the more you can send me at once, the better. This excludes samples. A 20% deposit is payable for all new contracts, not negotiable. I'm not taking on any new ghostwriting assignments.

Academic editor with lots of experience working with graduate students and professors. Services I offer: 1. Proofreading for grammar, spelling, and punctuation 2. Light copy editing -- this involves word choice, changing a sentence for clarity (basically quick fixes, but I make lots of comments if something needs more attention). 3. APA compliance (writing conventions, citations, references, formatting) What I don't do: 1. Coaching on writing or dissertation process. 2. Writing, rewriting, heavy copy editing. I am committed to academic honesty and students doing their own work. However, I do point out illogical statements, disorganization, areas that need clarification, sentences to rewrite and sometimes make suggestions for how to fix. I edit only in Word using track changes. I do all my own editing, no subcontracting. And I do not use any online editing program, just my own eyes.
