Nicky Galliers at Sic Est Verum from the UK

I fell into editing having learned to proof read at an international corporate law firm, and my displeasure at reading novels with spelling mistakes, grammatical errors and, worse, historical inaccuracies, spurred me into putting that training to good use.

I have worked predominantly on historical novels spanning every era from early Medieval to nineteenth century, as well as non-fiction, contemporary and LBGT.

My studies encompassed languages and History which dovetailed nicely, and I have a knowledge of several European languages including Spanish, French, Catalan and Provencale, and a smattering of Latin gleaned from church music and Domesday Book. My historical studies ranged from pre-historic archaeology to the Country House.

I have worked as a proofreader in several different industries, as a copywriter and researcher. Working with my clients is not just a mere job but a passion, and I find it deeply satisfying to watch a writer develop and reach their potential.

Michael Boyton from the UK

I offer a friendly and conscientious service to all authors and writers for copy-editing and proofreading. I won’t try to alter your style of writing or remove your hard-worked jokes, but I will read each and every word and spot those little mistakes that creep in to everyone’s writig.
I have more than a decade’s worth of proofreading and editing experience working in the newspaper industry and I can now bring those skills directly to you.
I have no specific genre expertise or preference. However, a degree in Archaeology and keen interests in history (esp. weapons and warfare), music, cooking, Wicca/Pagan, and fitness tends to lean me in those directions.
