everything i can do for you
proofreading
I will check your grammar and your spelling and make the tiniest edits to your work. Your work is practically perfect and just needs a once over to catch any hidden typos.
AED 20 per 1000 words
copyediting
I will reword and restructure your work. This is my most common option as most people seeking an editor are looking for a little polish to their writing. I won’t make any plot changes or content edits but I will restructure sentences to make them flow better, suggest changes to paragraph or even chapter order, and reword any areas that may benefit from it. I will also proofread your work after you have approved the copyedit. You get two edits in one!
AED 50 per 1000 words
Examples include Splintered, a novel, Never Left Behind, a novella, and Hidden Fire, an autobiography.
rewrite
This is the biggest job of them all. I will remove, add and rework sentences and paragraphs, restructure your entire piece (if necessary), and overall replace large sections of your work with copy that reads more fluently and in the tone you’re looking for. This is a rare offering as most people just need a polish to their work, but if you have the idea but lack the writing skill or desire to write, this could be the option for you.

research papers, phd and master’s theses
For research papers and theses, the above editing options apply. If you need your work reviewing quickly, this can also be arranged for an extra fee.
Examples include Culture and Low-Carbon Energy Transitions published in Nature Sustainability, High Performance Multicomponent Bifunctional Catalysts for Overall Water Splitting published in Journal of Material Chemistry A, and Explaining the Nature of Remote Healthcare Practice in the Extraction Industry, a PhD thesis for the School of Nursing and Midwifery, Robert Gordon University, Scotland.
translation
I can also translate from French, German and Russian into English. If you have a piece that has been translated from French, German or Russian into English that you would like reviewing, this is also possible.
