Donna L. Dawson

Profile

Certified Professional Editor. I ensure your text says what you want it to say, is clear and engaging and is right for your audience. My clients keep coming back because they're highly satisfied. I ask lots of questions, make valuable suggestions and am easy to work with. I have an honours degree in theatre and 16 years' experience with financial and business material, stock market research reports, medical journals, continuing medical education programs, nutrition and health material, self-help books and educational programs. If you're looking to outsource editing, proofreading or rewriting to a freelancer, get in touch. I've helped numerous authors successfully self-publish their books.

Clients say:

--“I always know that everything is perfect when you’re in charge ... [you] always add value to the project with meticulous proofreading and editing”

--“I must congratulate you on an exceptionally neat and attentive job … It is a real pleasure to receive proofreading of this quality”

--“You’ve pleased probably one of the most difficult writers we’ll work with”

--“Donna’s skills as an editor are precise and thoughtful … Not only is she a pleasure to work with, but her ideas are concise, intelligent and illuminating”

--“You’re a genius!”
