Testimonials
Since 2016 I have amassed a range and depth of experience in both proofreading and copyediting. Below are some testimonials from my clients, supplied either directly or through my profile on the Upwork platform.
For me as a publisher and for our authors it is always reassuring to know that Sarah is working on a book. The high levels of competence, professionalism, eye for detail and consistency, and genuine interest and understanding Sarah applies to editing are an asset to our books, and I highly recommend Sarah as a copyeditor and proofreader. Sarah's thorough checking of references, establishing and applying styles, providing detailed documentation, and the excellent questions she asks when working on a manuscript show a commitment to high standards and always result in quality editing publishers and authors can rely on.

Sarah inspired confidence from the start and executed a difficult task with a sureness of touch that gave great reassurance to a first time author publishing a novel. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any author needing a copy editor who will examine their work with rigour and advise on grammar and punctuation. It was a pleasure to work with her.

Hiring a freelance editor can often be scary. While Sarah charges a bit more than I normally pay it is well worth it given her level of skill. She is a professional editor and does this full time. She completed my 80k manuscript in less than a month and did a perfect job. Her comments were appreciated and helped pick up mistakes like the overuse of a word, a better wording and of course just fixed my many, many, many typos. Would hire again in a heartbeat."
