Details regarding Wordsmith services and rates (http://www.houseofbeesting.com/ Wordsmith page)

What I apply my services to -

As regards printed work: I edit doctoral and masters theses for university students, and have also worked in an ad hoc capacity for a publisher that published magazines and books for the building trade.

I’ve also done a few booklets and pamphlets for two charity organisations, and some commercial work, e.g. a small piece for a new shopping centre, plus book reviews and book editing.

As regards virtual environments, I have an understanding of the publishing industry in general and am happy with the process; I also have an understanding of the web environment, and in work previously done for a large corporation (on one of their web portals) I would check links, logic, navigation, etc, not just content on the “active content area.

This therefore could be applied to

Web Sites

Web Portals

Digital Communication such as electronic marketing brochures

•Book reviews

What I am offering:

Professional online Quality Assurance Management.

Specifics include:

Proof-reading text

Professional writing consultancy (grammar, spelling, general quality of writing)

Image checking

Navigational logic quality assurance

Coherence of design templates throughout (I report in on where things appear weird or different)

Broken Links Check (I report in, not fix them)

Separate from this, I am a published author so could also offer original writing if that is required, over and above editing, linking themes, ensuring work is readable, etc.

Methodology:

1.Printed media – I generally prefer to work on hard copy for editing.

2.Virtual environment

I operate online

I submit a detailed matrix highlighting the results of my quality assurance work

I undertake the process in stages so that changes can be done in parallel, which helps companies with their production schedule

Book review in PDF format or Word document
