Profile
My editing boosts the power of your words so you can connect with your reader. I help you enhance your content's structure, flow and consistency and address grammar, spelling and punctuation issues, all while preserving your voice or style needs. The end result is a message that is clear, concise, accurate and engaging.
Clients: "[Joanne was] patient, insightful and supportive... painstaking in her attention to detail at every stage in the process."
"Joanne's editing was a remarkably positive experience for me. From the outset, I sensed she was on my side and her edits were always thoughtful, considerate and supportive."
Editors Canada member since 1997. Facebook members' group moderator since 2015. <See other volunteer roles>.
