My job is to make your words industry-standard. Publisher or author, I work with you to make sure the manuscript is fit to fly.

Using Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat or BSI proofreading marks, I will check and correct: references; formatting; accuracy and consistency; grammar, spelling and punctuation; sentence construction and flow.

’Jo is an excellent proofreader: thorough, sensitive, always on time and really good at keeping us up to date with progress.’ – Little Toller Books

‘A good proofreader reaches beyond checking for typographical or grammatical errors – they possess an ability to get inside the essence of the work, so any changes do not affect the rhythm and beat of the author’s writing. I cannot recommend Jo highly enough. Her attention to detail is fastidious, and communication throughout was clear and unfettered.’ – G. J Liggett
