Certified Proofreader Overview

Hello! Are you a committed Christian who aspires to publish a book, but you're afraid that a lack of grammar skills will prevent people from taking your work seriously? Well, I help Christian writers become authoritative voices in their fields with keen-eye proofreading that Grammarly can’t provide.

Writing and publishing a book or blog will help establish you as an expert on your subject matter, and with my help, your content won't be riddled with typos or mistakes that turn readers off. I've worked with both ESL and dyslexic writers, so no obstacle is too big to overcome.

My proofreading skills serve presses such as B&H Academic, Globe Pequot (formerly Rowman & Littlefield), and Bloomsbury, as well as authors publishing with Wipf and Stock. My copy editing skills have served many smaller Christian presses, both traditional and hybrid, as well as an adjunct professor of theology with her academic work.

In addition to checking grammar and inconsistencies, I'm also well versed in Chicago/Turabian, should your project require citation checks, and the Christian Writer's Manual of Style. I also check all Scripture references according to your translation of choice.

I maintain consistent and clear communication, and I meet all deadlines as agreed upon.

I'm excited to work with you!
