What clients say

From an academic:

"Calling James a proofreader does not do him full justice. To be sure, he attended to my highly specialized philosophy book with rare precision and sensitivity. Not only did he catch my errors, but he also made me sound better! I would prefer to call him a collaborator of unequalled expertise. Further, he completed his work ahead of schedule, and substantially lowered our agreed-upon fee as a result. I recommend him enthusiastically and unequivocally.”
— Dr. Bernard Freydberg, USA

From a corporate:

“James has been a valuable contributor to our content output, bringing both technical expertise and a clear, engaging writing style. He consistently delivers high-quality work that aligns with our tone of voice, and he’s a pleasure to collaborate with. Very reliable and always open to feedback.”
— Isabel Jones, NES Fircroft

From a publisher:

“I’m very happy with the quality of the work. As well as taking care of the nuts and bolts of the job, James challenges points in the manuscript that need further clarification, and spots narrative inconsistencies as part and parcel of his proofing service.”
— Chris Lomas, Senior Editor at Trigger Publishing
