Here's how I helped some clients with their texts. They were at different stages of development and so needed different services.
Four Seasons: A Bangor Football Concerto, for its author
This book started life as a series of lyrically written, gently self-deprecating blog posts.
The author had gathered these posts together into a 100-page slim volume. I proofread them as a whole, which contributed to the book's cohesion. The author, John, is making a donation from the sale of each book to Bangor’s Abbey Road mental health resource and information centre.

Thank you so much for your work on 'Four Seasons', Sue. Your professionalism and meticulous attention to detail enabled me to release the book with the confidence that everything was as it should be. Rest assured that my latest efforts will soon be winging their way in your direction!
Report for Mantell Gwynedd
I copy-edited the English version of a social impact report about a social prescribing project in Gwynedd.
The purpose of the report was to communicate the impact of the Arfon Community Link project. This is a social prescribing scheme, which links patients with sources of support in the community. As the report was to be sent to the Welsh Government, the client’s aim was ‘to make sure it’s correct’.
Mantell Gwynedd is the County Voluntary Council in Gwynedd, Wales.
