Dania Sheldon, DPhil

Profile

I hold a doctorate in English Language and Literature from the University of Oxford and have over 20 years of experience editing a diverse variety of materials in numerous genres. I am eclectic in my interests and comfortable with a very wide range of subjects in the arts and sciences. In addition to non-fiction projects, I enjoy working on fiction manuscripts for adult and young adult readers. I am also the author of two published books, with a third in progress.

In 2017, I received the Tom Fairley Award for Editorial Excellence, Editors Canada's highest award. I have co-developed exams in all four subject areas of Editors Canada's professional certification program.

My services include: structural/substantive, stylistic and copy editing; proofreading; project management; writing, including government, policy, technical, and plain language; indexing; permissions research; photo/image research; manuscript assessment.

I am committed to providing professional, meticulous, timely service and will help you express your ideas clearly and effectively.
