Who We Are

We are three – now four – former colleagues who have many years of experience
as sub editors/copy editors and writers at publications including
The Sunday Times, Time magazine and The Week.
We are editors: we PROOFREAD and EDIT your essay, thesis, advert, novel, memoirs, website, newsletter or brochure.

We aren't robots. We don't just run your prose through a software program – we read every word ourselves.

We aren't literary agents: we can't get your novel or memoir published. But we can give it the final polish that will make it sparkle – and appeal to an agent. 



Clients, customers, agents, publishers, readers and professors will be put off by writing that is hard to understand, or peppered with errors.

We can: make your writing clearer and more accessible.

We can: read every sentence for grammar, typos, spelling, punctuation, word choice and sense, and fix any problems.

We can: discuss wording with you at any stage.

We can’t: write your essay for you.

We can’t: work miracles. if your thesis took two years to write, it’ll take at least two weeks to read.

Cost by arrangement with the individual editor.
