I bring a wealth of information and experience to each project. After more than 20 years working in retail advertising and handling several positions: proofreader, print buyer, media manager, broadcast & web writer, and copy manager, I decided to go freelance about 17 years ago. I relish the challenge of working on different projects for multiple clients and consistently bringing new life to stale ideas. I enjoy educating the reader, making him/her laugh, or simply making something that could be boring and lifeless into copy that intrigues and is easily understood. With my retail background I am consistently focused on selling whether that means a product, an idea, or a way of life. One quality that makes me different from many other people is that I am as adept at scrutinizing the details (composing indices for 300+ page catalogs by hand, proofreading/editing, or being responsible for a multi-million dollar budget) as I am at being creative. That means I work equally well whether given tight parameters or let loose to run through the fields of my imagination and have a chat with the voices in my head. I ensure that the customer is happy with the final product and I strive to do the best job possible, be on point, and on time.

Brief Overview: You know those teachers who catch every little mistake in student papers, and offer extensive and substantial comments on how to improve the work? Students might not be fans of this…but wouldn't that be exactly who you want in your corner, to help you perfect your work before submission/publication? That’s me! I am a professional academic with decades of experience writing, editing, peer-reviewing, and formatting academic and non-fiction content, with a lifelong passion for fiction. My editing experience includes co-editing The Heritage of Western Greece book series, assisting numerous (often ESL) peers publish in academic journals such as Physiologia & Archai, as well as assisting independent authors improve the philosophical content of their books. The Full Details: About Me: I’m a native English speaker with a Ph.D. in Philosophy, an M.A. in Classics, a B.A. in History. I have 17 years’ experience as a professional academic: professor, editor, reviewer, and published author. I have provided editing, copy editing, proofreading, and ESL assistance, for hundreds of academic and professional documents — including research papers, manuscripts, dissertations, journal articles, and technical reports. How I can help you: Developmental Editing ("The Big Picture"): You have a great idea, but are having difficulty developing it into a cohesive thesis/story, with good flow, logical consistency, and no plot holes. *I will provide a systematic review that identifies the strengths and weaknesses of the core elements and themes, with actionable advice on how to proceed towards completion. Line Editing ("Content & Style"): You have the big ideas and a rough draft, but need assistance with improving the writing in order to clearly and effectively communicate the information to the reader. *I will provide an in-depth and detailed line-by-line analysis, to help you effectively deliver your thesis/story to your audience. Copyediting ("The Technical Details"): Your manuscript is essentially complete, but it could use some help with grammar, syntax, clarity, and consistency. Perhaps it also needs to be properly cited according to a style guide. *I will help ensure your manuscript is consistent and technically correct, to ensure a professional-level polish. Proofreading ("The Final Check"): Your manuscript is basically finished. But it needs a final check, to ensure it is entirely error-free, prior to being submitted/published. *I will provide a careful systematic check, to ensure the copy is truly error free, so you can be confident your readers will not find any unprofessional and embarrassing mistakes. Style Guide Compliance: Your manuscript needs to ensure proper credit is given to your sources, according to a particular style guide. *I will provide complete and accurate compliance with whatever style guide is needed for your manuscript. I am proficient working with multiple common citation styles (APA Style, MLA Style, Chicago Manual of Style), and can also follow alternative style guides for particular publishers. Fact-Checking/Research Support: You need to make sure that no sources were lacking in or inappropriately attributed, and/or you need to ensure your claims are supported by your sources. *I will thoroughly check the information in your manuscript, and ensure consistency and accuracy with your cited sources. ESL Assistance: You want to publish in English, but it is not your native-language, and you could use the assistance of a native-speaker. *I have extensive experience helping non-native English writers achieve native -level clarity and fluency, without losing their style, and successfully publishing. Why work with me: Academic Credibility: Internationally recognized scholar with extensive publications and conference presentations. Detail-Oriented Editing: Experienced in generating polished, error-free, and professional-level publications--all while tracking and documenting each change. Cross-Disciplinary Expertise: Broadly trained in the Humanities. Capable of working effectively in many areas: academic, non-fiction, fiction, gaming content. Multilingual skills: Native English speaker. Reading knowledge of various Romance languages (Spanish, French, Italian, etc.). Chinese (HSK 4). Transparent Process: Collaborative editing using tools like Track Changes, with clear communication at every stage. Whether you need help developing a work, refining your prose for clarity, citations, or polishing a final copy for publication, I deliver work that meets the highest professional standards. Let’s work together, to ensure your project is clear, credible, and ready for its audience!

I'm an editor and proofreader, specialising in academic writing, romance and horror. I also have experience with fantasy, science fiction, and mystery. I'm communicative and diligent. I can handle both an ongoing work where you need me to help you polish up the chapters as you write, or a finished project where I have to check the whole book at once. My usual turn-out time is 4 days for an 80k editing, 3 days for a 60k editing, and 3 days for proofreading. I can deliver work faster than that (within 24 hours for a 60k, and withing 35 hours for an 80k), but I charge extra for rushed work. My rates are: Editing: $65 for every 20k ($3.25 per 1k) Proofreading: $40 for every 20k ($2 per 1k) Extra charge for rushed work: $50 I'm willing to undergo a paid trial if needed.

Hi there, I strongly believe you’re looking for me. Here’s why. As a published author, including a 250+ page Master's Thesis, you can certainly say that I know how to research an academic paper. Besides, I’m an adjunct research expert who uses print resources, online resources, Google Scholar, and other sites. My expertise is in the social sciences, economics and law fields especially international law - but I am amenable to working in other fields (except STEM). I enjoy the research process so you would enjoy working with me. BTW, I'm a great writing coach as well as a terrific proofreader! Just to answer a few of your queries 1.I’d love to do this project within 7-10 days 2.Of course I'd love to provide staged feedback so you know who's really working on your project. 3. My revisions aren’t limited ( I’ll help you a couple of times) 4. I use google docs mostly but i’d love to know your preference. Looking foward to your reply. John.
