Hello

I am a professional book editor and proofreader. Having worked as an editor for a large publisher for eight years, I have edited and proofread over 500 books including nine Sunday Times bestsellers. The last three years, I have commissioned a wide range of non-fiction so I understand what commissioning editors are looking for in a manuscript.

Whether you have just completed your first draft of a novel and are looking for independent feedback or you need someone to do a final proofread of your promotional brochure, I can help. Without exception, I feel the invisible hand of an editor is essential to any successful piece of writing. My fees are competitive and proofreading starts from ?7 per 1000 words.

Please send me a DM to discuss your needs. References available on request.

Thank you,

Jane

  4.35pm and yes, as anticipated the 'NYE' fireworks have started up again, that's a full 16 hours after the event they are meant to celebrate has been and gone.

  I don't mind fireworks going off for NYE at midnight but I don't actually understand why they are still going off at 1am, 2am, 3am!

  I suppose all these issues that need addressing are a reflection of the times we live in. Important and necessary but somehow destroy the underlying spirit.

  Do you know who organised and ran it? Because it must have been quite a lot of work. Who kept track of the credits? What safeguards were they? Was there a lower age limit eg over 18? Was insurance needed? ID? Who checked it? What was the situation if somebody was injured while working in your house or garden? What if someone broke or stole something? What if someone in your house was molested or attacked? What if you weren't happy with the standard of work? Sorry to be gloomy, but whilst this sounds a great idea in theory, in common with many people I know I've had several bad experiences with supposedly professional tradespeople, let alone someone who wasn't doing it for a living.
