| Copyediting
Copyediting: A copyedit repairs awkward style and structure on a sentence level. I correct grammatical problems such as subject/verb agreement, misplaced modifiers, unclear antecedents and parallelism. I revise passive voice and eliminate smothered verbs, noun strings, wordiness and vagueness. For style decisions, I refer to The Chicago Manual of
Style, AP Stylebook, or APA Publication Manual.
Technical Copyediting and ESL Copyediting: Technical editing is copyediting of technical or scientific material. I have experience with computer and medical subjects. ESL copyediting is for writers who use English as a second language and need an editor to standardize their material.
