Testimonials for my proofreading and editing service:

Alison really is the ‘Proof Fairy’. As someone who prides himself on his grasp of the English language, I’m constantly humbled by the number of errors she spots within my manuscripts! And having had several agents tell me how refreshing it is to read an error free submission, I can honestly say she’s worth her weight in gold.

Alison is extremely professional in her approach and is always quick to update me on her progress. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is serious about making a good impression.

Alison has been proof reading all of my tenders over the last few months (20,000 words+) and I have recently retained her services to write some of my blogs and newsletter. She is fantastic, quick accurate and cost effective. I honestly cannot recommend her services highly enough.

Joy McCarthy, WORDright

Alison, many thanks for your help on proof reading my website. Several people had spotted small errors, and that is something I really didn’t want. The job you did went beyond simply identifying the typos, but also the grammar and punctuation. You also provided the results in a very simple to follow format. This was well worth me doing, as if I was left to my own devices the errors would have stayed un-noticed for much longer. Excellent professionalism.

Graham Smith, Graham Smith Business Services

Very pleased with your work and would recommend you to other lawyers. Nice common sense approach and very quick.

Emma, Lime One

Rory Gear, writer

Alison is now my ‘staff’ proof reader for a technically-oriented newsletter that I put out for a client. She’s quick, attentive, affordable and accurate – what more could you ask for?

David Burn, Marketing and Research Projects

Alison at ‘The Proof Fairy’ is fantastic at what she does. She is always very honest about timings and sticks to the deadline that she has promised. Her work was recently seen by a contemporary of mine and they described it as some of most well presented work that they had ever seen. That person is a Best Selling Author so knows his stuff.
