Editorial & Literary Consultant

 
Editorial Services

With companies producing so much online and print copy, making sure in-house writing and editorial skills are up to scratch has never been more important.

I can offer freelance copywriting, editing and proof-reading, and I can also work with you to create an agreed editorial house-style for your company. Having a house-style and making sure that everyone who writes for you knows how to use it will eliminate inconsistencies of spelling, grammar, and presentation – cleaning up your copy so it is accessible and professional.

My editorial consultancy service is tailored to each client’s needs. For example, a recent package included:

  • Initial consultation / assessment of online and print content
  • Consultation meeting to discuss how the editorial style would work alongside company branding and marketing
  • Advice and tips on writing good copy
  • Creating a company editorial house-style
  • Editing existing online content to the new house-style
  • Putting the house-style into a document which is easy to reference, giving examples from the company’s existing copy, and including points of grammar presented in an easy-to-understand way
  • Sign-off meeting answering remaining questions of grammar / presentation and making sure everyone who needed to felt confident in implementing the house-style.
  •  

If you are a publishing house or communications agency looking to extend your pool of freelancers, or you have an editorial or proof-reading job to assign, please get in touch.
