Hi!
I would be interested in working with you.
I’ve worked as a copyeditor and proofreader for the past 15 years in an academic setting and also as a freelancer. I have experience editing scholarly articles in various fields. I have worked on papers about women and the political process in Cambodia for an author affiliated with a women's rights organization.
I received a PhD in Comparative Literature from Indiana University, and published a book based on my dissertation. I taught literature and English composition at the college level for many years. In addition to teaching, I worked as copy editor of Clio, a scholarly journal.
I have edited theses and dissertations for authors from Chile, the Middle East, Korea, Spain, Japan, China, Russia, Germany, New Zealand, and Iran.
I currently work as a freelance editor for Enago. We provide editing for ESL authors who wish to publish in English-language journals. The assignments I’ve worked on range from politics to sociology to literature to history. I am also an editor for Newgen Knowledge Works and have edited a number of scholarly and professional books.
My copyediting is highly accurate, and I’m conscientious about meeting deadlines.
I’ll be glad to send you a resume and/or my website on request. My rates are negotiable, depending on the level of editing required.
Thanks for considering my bid. I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
Leigh
