About Andrew
British professional Proofreader, Copy-Editor, Author and Beta-Reader.
Bridlington, United Kingdom - 10:22 am local time
I am a British certified professional copy/line editor and proof-reader, and the author of 6 novels.
Many of these former roles have helped to develop my skills in writing, paying particular attention to detail, and enhancing my editing abilities.
I have put these skills into practice, firstly by writing 3 memoirs, and secondly, by drawing on my police experience by writing 3 crime/fiction novels. As part of the publishing process, I taught myself the skills of editing and proofreading (finding that I had a natural ability in these fields).
Since then, I have trained, and graduated, with the College of Media and Publishing (CMP) and with the Publishing Training Centre (PTC) to formalise my qualifications. I am now trained to the most recent international standards in these skills, and can turn my abilities to any English text in any part of the world (adapting my skills accordingly).
I have been freelancing in writing, editing and publishing for the last 8 years, helping self-published authors to polish their novels prior to publication. Many have gone on to receive rave reviews for their books.
I specialise in correcting the following:
Grammar, Punctuation, Spelling (UK and US), Syntax
Word choice for Tone, Flow, Readability
Formatting of text, titles, page layout
Analysis of manuscripts (as a reader and an editor) - Beta-Reading
Many other aspects of copy/line editing and proofreading.
I can work on:
Books, eBooks, manuscripts, short stories
Blurbs
Business documents (reports, letters, emails, newsletters, etc)
Marketing material (brochures, flyers, email campaigns, posters, etc)
Online text (blogs, webpages, etc).
No matter what your requirements, get in touch.
If it's written in English, I can edit it.
Quality and accuracy over quantity.
All editing completed by humans (me) - No AI used.
