Recent projects

My proofreading testimonials were generated from the following work:

  • adult fiction novels
  • children’s books
  • an art book on figurative painting
  • a community book on local history
  • a community book on school memories
  • illustrated memoirs
  • a self-help book
  • a personal account of lockdown
  • academic essays and dissertations

I have a particular interest in helping people produce memoirs for family and friends. Your story will be presented in a format ready for publishing. It will contain front and back covers and any images and documents you wish to include. It will have full preliminary pages (title page, dedication, contents page and acknowledgements), appendices if required, footnotes and full running headers. Contact me if this is something you are considering.
