Why I love proofreading and editing

I love bringing a piece of writing to the next level so readers can quickly and easily grasp the ideas. The mechanical aspects of writing should facilitate understanding rather than hinder it.

I am interested in a wide variety of subjects, so I enjoy working with material in many fields, such as business, science, food, health, and fiction. Education and parenting are the areas in which I have the most interest and experience, so I especially like working with writing related to these topics.

Favorite book:

Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark Sullivan.

Hobbies:

When I’m not proofreading, I like reading for pleasure and cooking.

Editing tips:

After editing a document, I find it helpful to put it aside for at least a few minutes, and then read through it one more time with fresh eyes. This helps me to get a sense of the piece as a whole.
