I'm an Australian editor, writer, and certified proofreader with broad experience and high standards. I blend natural creativity with academic rigour. I offer you developmental editing and copy editing as well as final proofreading. From blogs to books—especially books, I am your secret sauce! I write for a growing subscriber network regularly on Substack (Sarah Newton-John) and for clients on topics that I care about. I am a member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (UK) where I participate in ongoing professional development. I will significantly raise the quality and impact of your writing. If you are using AI, I bring humanity to the content. I am (hopefully)—your new hire—and here, in a nutshell, are some more good reasons why: In an eclectic 30-year in-house career in Sydney and London, I held various roles in magazine, newspaper, and book publishing, settling in the medical sector, with editorial work a constant thread. I am a qualified librarian who worked in a newspaper library; then my career took a different direction. I have proofread dozens of medical textbooks for the global science publisher, Elsevier since 2008. Medical content is a constant and current theme in my career. I have experience writing news articles, blogs, social media posts, and newsletters. I copy edit books, two medical journals, reports, academic papers, and social media posts. I am familiar with SEO and have experience with WordPress, Yoast, SurferSEO, and Dibbly. I often humanize AI-generated text and do not utilize the technology in my creative output unless you ask me to. Let me know your brief, and I will roll up my sleeves! Warm regards, Sarah :)
