Often, a critical — but friendly! — second pair of eyes can help you see what your writing does well and what needs some more work.  Whether it’s a quick whizz through to check you’ve crossed your t’s and dotted your i’s, or a more in-depth, root-and-branch assessment of content and structure, I’m happy to take a look.

I’ve had experience with academic writing, up to doctoral level — not least with my own PhD — as well as business texts, creative work, and more personal pieces.  And I’m a thoughtful, intelligent reader.  I’m particularly happy when I’m proofreading or editing academic work — I love all the things I get to learn along the way!

“Pippa edited my doctoral thesis in the field of social research and users’ online engagement. I admired the pace of the work and consistency of her remarks. I also appreciated Pippa’s comments about some formal and technical issues she noticed.”  Õnne, PhD, University of Milano-Bicocca

Perhaps your writing needs a bit of polishing.  Perhaps it just needs the odd tweak here and there.  Perhaps there’s more to it than that.  I’ll read through your writing, talk to you about it, and figure out the best way for us to work together on it.

“Pippa turned around the copy-editing of a book in whirlwind time. We were impressed by her commitment to the project. She understood our brief perfectly, was completely unflappable and has a great way with words which bought the book to life.” Pru, Head of Communication

Or perhaps you’ve only got a pile of notes or a handful of ideas — and you’re looking for someone to make sense of it.  I can help you clarify what it is you want to say, and help you find the best way to say it — whether you or I end up writing it in the end.

“We love Pippa’s work. She is not only an excellent writer but she is also a highly proficient project manager, ensuring everyone understands their part in the brief, timelines are made and the material is on time to the highest standards possible. We could not be any happier with the service we have from Pippa: she understands our ethos and philosophy and conveys this to our audience in all her writing.” James, tennis coach

Rates will depend on the kind of work we’re looking at, the length of the writing, and the complexity of the project.  Get in touch and let’s talk.
