Proofreader, copy-editor and writer

Years of writing experience come as standard in this fully-specced model. Solid copywriting knowledge and excellent proofreading skills are neatly... packed under the bonnet. 0 - 60 in ... barely any time at all! Written copy starts smoothly, accelerates powerfully and romps efficiently over the line, boasting about its accuracy and professionalism. From a school essay that needs the once-over, to global business websites and projects, my pen and I are in your pit waiting to ensure your vehicle outperforms the rest. Extended metaphor over. I'll help your words do exactly what you want them to do. I teach writing (in English) at University of Salzburg, and I write for several private clients, who use my words daily, weekly, monthly and on the odd occasion. Luckily, I have borrowed Hermione's time-turner, so I am perfectly capable of doing in a day what it takes others to do in a week.
