Proof reader / Copy writer / Copy editor , Philip B

Proof reader / Copy writer / Copy editor

Milton Keynes, United Kingdom
During my 25-year working life, which has been spent both in academia and in the world of consultancy, I have... accumulated extensive experience in producing high-quality, accurate reports and brochures for a range of high-profile clients, (most notably the European Commission, the Highways Agency and the Department for Transport). For my most recent employer, (I am now freelance), I was Marketing Coordinator, so have plenty of experience with writing copy for the company web-site, marketing brochures, leaflets and newsletters. I have always been proud of my ability to write clear, well-punctuated English, and have very often adopted the role of proof reader and quality controller for the output of colleagues. Attention to detail is something that comes naturally to me, and my knowledge of European languages (French, Spanish, Italian, German), and general interest in linguistics, has provided me with a thorough appreciation of the structure of English. I have recently made the decision to pursue a freelance career from home, and so am now in a position to make my services available on an on-going basis. Proof reading and copy writing are activities that I thoroughly enjoy, and I am very pleased to make these skills available to people and companies that might wish to utilise them.

Part of my current work involves creating personalised chocolate wrappers for businesses and individual special occasions, creating gift baskets, candy bouquets and candy buffet, and making favours for awards, events and weddings . I have experience in blogging. I am able to work in all areas of administration having worked for a GP for 5 years.

I have in the past organised events for charity fundraising and very much enjoy these. I am currently working as a planner for my second wedding within friend and family circles. I have worked as a PA to the head of a mission department in the UK for a year to help elleviate him of paperwork and correspondance.I also did this role for my husband within his work for 5 years.

Brownhills, United Kingdom
'Everyone has a book inside them'. But how did it get there? And more importantly, how do you get it out? I have published 5 of my own books and ghost written many ...others, so if you have a collection of poems, some local history research, a half written novel, a fascinating life... story, recipes from your Grandmother or information about a hobby that you want to share then I can take your raw work and turn it into a professionally published book that you can either give to your friends and family or even make available through High Street and online retailers for anyone to buy. I can produce illustrations and cover design to bring your book to life and the finished book will be available for you to order any quantity, so you can have just one copy for yourself, one for all your friends, or enough to sell to your school, through local bookshops or even worldwide through the global book ordering systems. My partner and I work together on illustrations, editing and proof reading to ensure the highest levels of accuracy, and to ensure that your book is well balanced from both a male and female perspective. Our service is priced very simply with a flat fee per word for production of the book and then a small charge per copy ordered, both of which depend on whether the book is for private distribution only or if it needs an ISBN number for distribution through retailers. If you want to sell your book commercially, we can even help you to market it, create a website, give you ideas for promotion, organise signings and create articles and press releases. If you have a book inside you, let me help you turn it into something that you can be truly proud of.

Nowadays I am a qualified relationship counsellor and therefore enjoy writing with a human angle but also in the past have worked in areas from property to childrens publications. My work experience ranges from editor of a holistic health magazine to promotions, marketing and publishing, anything from editorial to proof reading and I enjoy writing as a hobby as much as a working position. My counselling work day to ...day does not stop me from craving to write and I hope that I can bring some of my life... experience to my writing and to the outside world. -I am easy going, but will produce to deadlines, enjoy the simplest of tasks that everyone else hates as well as any more detailed jobs, and can offer reliability, a friendly and supportive service and hopefully enjoy the job as well!

Director, Mike M

Director

London, United Kingdom
Mike Meir, MA(Oxon) I am the Executive Director of Gate Seven Computers Ltd, the vehicle through which I would manage your contract, and a Director ...of two other Charities: Tower Hamlets Community Housing, and the Union Chapel Project. I have devoted much of my life... and career to community-related activities, and have lived on the Mansford Estate in Bethnal Green, an inner city, and latterly trendy, area of London, since 1995. After taking a degree in Biochemistry from the University of Oxford, I worked for many years in therapeutic communities, and was then Information Officer for a national mental health charity. I became involved with computers as part of my work there as early as 1983 when I set up a CVS-type project to connect volunteers with people needing support, and which was run by people with a history of mental illness as part of their rehabilitation programme. I went on to support the charity in the introduction of PC-based systems, and set up their branch in India. In 1989, I founded Gate Seven Computers Ltd, developing systems which first enabled and then made easy, the use of Indic scripts, such as Bengali, in standard applications. This software is widely used in Translation Units throughout the UK. From 2004 I have been delivering web-related solutions, often, but not exclusively for "third sector" organisations - community based organisations and charities, who need powerful, interactive web sites which they can manage themselves. After evaluation of a number of CMS packages, I chose TYPO3, which is powerful, and flexible yet easy and intuitive for end-users. It is also natively multilingual. **Skills and Experience** - Programming, particularly socially relevant software since 1983, mainly in relation to Indic Scripts (Bengali, Devanagari, etc.) - Developing web sites and intra/extranets with the CMS TYPO3 since 2004, with a particular, though not exclusive, interest in sites for community groups and third sector organisations. - Designing sites to meet the needs of anyone who wants a web site that they can manage themselves with the minimum of hassle, and maximum of ease-of-use, and ditto for their visitors. - Familiar with the technologies that TYPO3 uses - range of available extensions, mySQL, PHP, Typoscript, (X)HTML and CSS, YAML CSS Framework; also Accessibility, Visual Basic and Visual Basic for Applications. - Development of intra- or extra-net-based resources for organisations through the CRM package SugarCRM, and the ECM package Alfresco. - Managing Linux-based web servers. - provision of comprehensive and properly optimised hosting. - Empowerment, training and on-going support. - Content writing, editing and proof reading, particularly in relation to plain English. - Supporting Indic and other non-Latin scripts on the web and in print. - Type Design and Type Technology; - automation of Indic script entry. **How I Work** In taking on your work, I am commitment to delivering the solution that you want, in the way you want, to the highest standards. **Value for Money** By working with the CMS TYPO3 which is both powerful, flexible and extensible I am nearly always in a position in which I could provide you with just the customised solution that you need. Development costs are reduced by the power of the package itself, and the pre-existence of more than 5000 extensions, which can be used directly or developed as part opf your solution. Simialrly, both Alfresco ECM and SugarCRM are available in free community versions which already provide solutions for many of the projects which are advertised on this site, reducing the actual task to one of customisation, for which they are designed. The base packages can be provided free of charge as part of a hosting agreement.

Always learning from each piece of work I produce and updating to keep up with the break-neck speed of the on-line world, I am the epitome of the on-line writer. I am a very patient and flexible person to work with (as one has to be in this field) and always strive to make myself accessible for my clients. I live on-line so this is not difficult to do! Though I am open to writing on a broad range of subjects, my preferences and ...my best skills lie in the following areas: Life & Style Technology Social Media Travel Domestic animal subjects Conservation Wildlife
