Copy-editing, proofreading and more


Making your words flow

Is your written material clear, easy to read and well suited to its audience? I can help to make sure it is.

I’m Graham Hughes, and I run GH Editorial, an editing and proofreading service based in Chester in the UK. I work mainly with business clients and with specialist and non-fiction publishers.

 
​I've helped my customers with more than fifty books, well over a hundred business reports and much more.
 
Here’s what I can do for you:
  • Enhance your use of language, to help readers understand your message quickly and clearly
  • Fix errors and inconsistencies in spelling, grammar and punctuation
  • Help ensure your material will be suited to its purpose and your target readers
  • Advise you on formatting, layout, structure and editorial style
  • Edit your writing into plain English if needed
  • Do a high-level assessment of a document or manuscript (aka developmental editing)
  • Create or revise a style guide
 
I offer different types of service depending on what you need, as explained on the Services page. ​The About page has details of my training, experience and background.

‘Graham has been great on the jobs I have given him, and I don't say this lightly. His tenacity and thoroughness are second to none ... I have no hesitation in recommending him as an excellent copy-editor.’
Michele Staple, Editorial Manager, The Stationery Office
​‘We use Graham as a regular editor of our business reports, a task to which he brings both a keen eye for detail and an instinctive sense of style. ... He copes well with the vagaries of our ever-changing timelines, is able to handle challenges well beyond normal editorial services, and is always professional. I recommend him very highly.’
C.J. Rowe, Delivery and Quality Manager
