Editing in Action
Before
(Excerpt, shared with permission.)
Your body naturally hosts trillions of micro-organisms, including a yeast fungus called candida albicans.
Under normal circumstances it works together with your immunity system to help keep harmful bacteria from over-populating your gut and taking over.
However, a diet rich in sugar, cereals, and soft drinks, as well as frequent use of antibiotics, can cause a health condition that's hard to diagnose and even harder to treat—Candidiasis.

Your body naturally hosts trillions of microorganisms, including a fungus called Candida albicans.
Under normal circumstances, it works with your immune system to help keep harmful bacteria from overpopulating your gut and disrupting your gut health.
However, a diet high in sugar, cereals, and soft drinks,, especially when combined with excessive use of antibiotics, can lead to candidiasis—a health condition that is hard to diagnose and even harder to treat.
Improved scientific accuracy, strengthened readability and conceptual clarity, eliminated redundancy, and corrected mechanical and stylistic errors in hyphenation, capitalization, italics, and word choice.
Retained hard and harder—while not typical in academic writing, these semiformal choices are consistent with the author’s style and remain appropriate outside academia; in an academic context, difficult and more difficult would be preferable.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Your questions answered so you know what to expect
Absolutely. I clarify, polish, and structure your content without rewriting it.
You review meaning-altering edits, and nothing is finalized without your approval.
The final piece is authentically yours.
This website follows The Chicago Manual of Style, which recommends the unspaced em dash (a long dash with no spaces around it) and the serial (Oxford) comma before the final item in a list.
For your project, I’ll follow the style guide that best fits your writing and your preferences. That may include using spaced dashes or omitting the Oxford comma.
I price projects per 1,000 words, adjusted for project length and complexity.
Short-form content for first-time clients is billed at the standard rate—US$50 per 1,000 words.
Long-form content receives a lower per-word rate, and ongoing or regular projects are discounted.
Yes. Each project requires preparation and communication, so the minimum charge is US$50 (NZ$85). This covers up to 1,000 words of short-form content for first-time clients.
A deposit is a safeguard against unpaid work and ensures your project is booked into my schedule so I can complete it within the agreed timeframe.
After payment, I work in stages, share progress, and ask for feedback.
I only invoice the remaining balance once you’re happy with the sample edits.
If you aren't satisfied with the completed edits, my money-back guarantee applies to both the deposit and final payment.
For more details on the money-back guarantee, please see the FAQ section on the Services & Pricing page.
