Samples
Please note that I generally can’t provide samples of my previous work, as this would almost certainly be a breach of copyright and/or client confidentiality. In any case, details of work I’ve done for other clients might not be a good indicator of what I would do for you, as the work varies so much between different types of content and different clients’ needs. Instead, I might do a sample edit or proofread of your material, using a reasonably sized (typically up to about 1,000 words) passage of text: please feel free to ask me about this.
