Is your writing clear and error free?

When editing and proofreading we improve existing writing without changing the meaning.

The three types of editing we provide will increase the effectiveness of your existing copy. You choose the type of editing you require:

  • Structural editing — we look at the big picture to determine whether the language, content, structure and presentation are appropriate for your goals and the readers’ expectations.

  • Copy editing — we improve and correct each sentence, looking at accuracy, consistency, grammar, spelling and punctuation.

  • Proofreading — we check your document for typographical errors and correct layout and formatting to ensure it’s ready to print.

We have expertise in both Australian and American English spelling and usage*, and we use the latest edition style guides for Australia (Style manual - For authors, editors and printers) and the United States (The Chicago Manual of Style).

Alternatively, we can create a style guide specifically for your company.

Our editing experience covers a wide range of industry and document styles. Please contact us on 03 9754 5761 or email info@wordnerds.com.au to discuss your editing and proofreading needs.
