Deborah Taylor

Title: Proofreader and Copy Editor

Certified Proofreader Overview

Hi, I'm Deborah. I have a background in photography and design. Working in the print industry, higher education, and advertising and marketing has given me an understanding of various clients' needs.

As a graduate of Proofread Anywhere, I can use track changes in MS Word docs, Suggesting Mode in Google Docs, implement CMOS and other style rules, correct errors usually missed by grammar checkers, ensure formatting consistency, and punctuate dialogue. A member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), I abide by its Code of Practice (CoP). The CoP is endorsed by the CIEP Council and is considered binding on members and corporate subscribers.

I love working with publishing houses, podcasters and independent, self-publishing authors, especially crime writers and romance/adult fiction. For more info click on my services pages.

For business clients, I can provide a clear head and proofread a wide range of content, including websites, newsletters, blogs, transcripts, and marketing materials.
