Profile

Promote your business or enhance your personal project with clear and effective writing, editing, or transcription.

 

 

“Carolyn works with high professional standards. She combines those special qualities of compassion and keen eye for detail that make a brilliant editor. Anyone who works with her — client or colleague — benefits from her wisdom and substantial experience.” Lenore Hietkamp, Assembly Editors Group

“I completely trust your judgment, Carolyn. I think you have a very good understanding of where we need to take this. Thanks for your thoughtful consideration of our needs. You are a wonderfully talented editor and a tremendous asset to our team.”   Alison Braid-Skolski, Assembly Editors Group

“Carolyn, I hope we’ll have the opportunity to work together again soon — I want you in my boat on any future team projects. It was a relief and a pleasure to know your expertise was only an e-mail away. I’m proud of the work our collaboration produced under extreme deadlines and with continually shifting goalposts — what I call “editing in quicksand.” Not only did your editorial prowess (and tension-diffusing humour) contribute to otherwise elusive solutions, the compendium of resources you compiled for us enabled me to shave hours off my own research and fact checking. Talk about value added!”  Jean Lawrence, Assembly Editors Group

“Everything looks terrific. Once again, many thanks for working so quickly and figuring out what we needed! I hope we get more chances to work together.”   Laura Macleod, Nelson Education Ltd.

“I have had the pleasure of working with Carolyn Bishop on two projects. She is quick, effective, and professional; she delivers even more than expected. She has a good reputation as an experienced professional and is well known as a helpful, insightful, and collegial editor.”  James Harbeck, MediResource Inc.

“Carolyn is a great person to work with. Work was always on time, and the writing was always top tier. I would definitely use Carolyn's services again.”  Wyatt Collier, Spearhead Graphics

“Carolyn, you are a whiz! It's so good to have you on board.”  Bev Martin, Humanities Software
