No waffle. Just words. Write with passion, edit with precision, and share your story in the way you want it to be told. Powerful and persuasive writing is about sending the right message in the right way to the right audience. It’s also about patience, creativity and good editing. All of this takes time and effort. And that’s where I come in. 👋 Hi, I'm Joanna, a writer and anthropologist with a background in IT quality management. 🔸️ Are you a small business owner, academic or independent author? 🔸️ Are you hurtling towards a deadline, but your draft needs a thorough review and polish? 🔸️ Do processing issues get in the way of how you express yourself in writing? 🔸️ Is your multi-authored document crying out for a voice of its own? Whether you're writing a business proposal, a book or a dissertation, the key is crystal-clear communication: telling your story as effectively as possible. My friendly, precise and thorough editing will help you make that story correct, readable and memorable. Here’s what I'll do for you: 🌏 LINGUISTIC REVIEW Invaluable where processing or cognitive issues get in the way of how you express yourself in writing. 🔎 EDITING COPYEDITING: emphasising overall quality, content, structure and tone (quality assurance). PROOFREADING: focusing closely on spelling, grammar, formatting, and finding any remaining errors (quality control). PROOF-EDITING: a convenient and cost-effective option combining elements of copyediting and proofreading, where schedule or budget may not allow for a full round of both. ✒️ WRITING SUPPORT A more holistic content review, providing a fresh editorial eye. If you've done the legwork, I'll add the spit and polish. (I also help with obscure idioms and metaphors.)
