‘I would just like to say Lorna is the best proofreader I've ever experienced. She went above and beyond my expectations by taking the time to talk to me and read some of my work to get to know my writing style. Lorna worked seamlessly with my editor and even completed her proofreading ahead of schedule. I have no doubt that my book is in the best shape it could possibly be thanks to her. I would absolutely recommend Lorna.’

What Authors Say…

‘I cannot recommend Lorna highly enough as a proofreader. She takes complete ownership of the project, taking time to discuss your needs and preferences, way ahead of getting the actual manuscript. She is extremely thorough, sometimes even querying editorial points, which is also incredibly valuable. I am very happy to have Lorna as part of my regular 'dream team', helping me get my books out. She is a great asset to any project.’

– J.M. Simpson, Fiction Author 

‘Lorna was extremely patient and helpful as she guided me through the process. She is a meticulous proofreader, did an amazing job.’

‘Lorna was a pleasure to work with. Her timelines were more than reasonable and her work was very helpful in finalizing a writing project.’
