Here's how I helped some clients with their texts. They were at different stages of development and so needed different services.
Death at Coombe Farm, a novel, for its author
I proofread this police detective thriller, the fourth in the DCI Tremayne series.
The author, Phillip Strang, lives in Australia. He wanted the text in UK English, so as well as proofreading it, I suggested alternative words, expressions and turns of phrase to replace any 'Australianisms'.
Phillip has a number of other self-published titles available on Amazon.

ProofreadingReport for Cymdeithas Tai Eryri
I pulled together a report from raw statistics and focus group results.
Cymdeithas Tai Eryri had collected statistical data from its 'hard to heat' houses that had been fitted with air source heat pumps and insulation. Focus groups had also been held with the tenants.
I was commissioned to write a draft report; the 9,000-word text was finalised by the client.
Cymdeithas Tai Eryri was a housing association in Gwynedd and Anglesey; it is now part of Grŵp Cynefin.
What my clients say
Hoffwn ddiolch yn arw i Sue am y holl waith trwyadl a gwerthfawr mae hi wedi gwneud, ac rwyf yn sicr bydd yr adroddiad yn help mawr i ni.
(We thank Sue sincerely for the thorough and valuable work she's done, and I'm sure that the report will be of enormous help to us.)
