Freelance (science) writer and editor

I am an intelligent, well educated young woman with a degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom. After graduating in 2004 with an upper 2nd class honours degree (score 68.9%), I took a Post Graduate Certificate of Education and worked as a Biology teacher in a prestigious boarding grammar school for two years. Following this I decided ...to take some time out for myself and spent the next year travelling the world, before returning to the UK... and choosing a change of career. Since returning from my travels I have been working in biomedical publishing, first as an editorial assistant for an online biomedical picture library, and now as a full time freelance writer and editor. My main client is a leading biomedical publishing company based in London for whom I provide remote editorial assistance; overseeing timely peer review of scientific manuscripts, liaising with authors and editors, copyediting of texts and writing press releases. A recent press release I wrote was picked up by 3 national newspapers (UK) and a host of other science news websites! The nature of this job requires an outstanding level of attention to detail, superb grammar, spelling and punctuation (particularly for specific, scientific language) as well as an understanding of web publishing, peer-review, pre- and post production. I have access to the full text of a wide range of journals and books through this company and so am perfectly placed to research articles for a variety of science and social science topics. I am able to write in British or American English as required and have a quick and accurate typing speed of 60 words per minute. In addition to science writing, I also undertake general copywriting, copyediting and proofreading work. I am a freelance member of a web design company based in Trinidad and have also written and improved copy for other businesses and individuals. Recent projects have included writing for a string quartet, a fishing charter business and a web hosting firm, so you can see that my experience is varied! My full portfolio can be found on my Wordpress website - details available on request. Unlike some of the providers on People Per Hour, I am a full time, professional freelance worker who pays tax to the UK Government. To maintain this level of professionalism and to cover both our backs, I must insist on the signing of an agreement between myself and the buyer - a generic copy of this agreement, which also requires the buyer to provide full, valid contact details, can be delivered on request. If you are not interested in keeping things "above board", then sorry, neither am I interested in you. Apologies to sound so negative, but scams abound! As this is my career, I simply cannot afford, either in monetary terms or in terms of my reputation, to get involved with any project that condones cheating (e.g. student assignments), copyright theft, or sloppy affiliate marketing (e.g. those buyers who hire people to write or rewrite poor copy for a dollar per article to dump on a landing page loaded with dishonourable pay-per-click links). As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. As a professional writer and editor, I choose the projects I bid on very carefully, and welcome invitations from honest buyers looking for high quality work. I am available for all kinds of writing projects, particularly but not limited to copywriting and copyediting of a biomedical nature. A good writer is a good writer, and as well as writing about environmental and scientific themes, I have previously worked for a marketing company, a self-help website, a transcription agency, non-fiction publishing and the education sector.
