Exactly Editing

Exactly Editing provides three levels of freelance editing (in English): 1. Creative editing: developmental and/or line editing 2. Procedural editing: copy editing and/or proofreading 3. Book doctor service (all/a combination of the above) For more information on what these services involve, check out my newsletter “The Page Turner”. Spoiler: my editing work is not simply linguistic tinkering and fuss-pottery, although I can employ a dash of both, if requested by a client. My clients are international writers, working on: Fiction Non-fiction Academic books Academic theses/dissertations Technical books Technical reports Educational materials (written/text-based only) I have experience working with authors of: - Children’s books (picture and chapter) - Young adult fiction - Mystery thrillers - Memoirs - Historical fiction - Fantasy, sci fi and dystopian fiction - Informative books in the areas of the arts, renewable energy, science, law, sociology, neurodiversity and education - Academic papers and articles Exactly Editing’s clients include: Storyhouse works (Hannah Huber, Claire Bown, Tea Gudek, Carmen Monge…) Van Vollenhoven Institute (Leiden University) researchers Nane Danza ProPlanEn Wind Pioneers (Amongst others - for more, please visit www.exactlyediting.nl) I hold qualifications in literature (English and German), education, and urban planning, up to masters level, but my best qualification for editing your writing is my bookworm status, which has lasted 41 years… I am genuinely delighted to read anything, and to work together with my clients to explore and generate ideas, as well as to refine their writing and champion them on the road to publication. I like to stay behind the scenes, but my style of editing is active, involved and communicative. I also like to learn from my clients, as editing (at its best) is not a one-way street. Exactly Editing was born to help you craft writing worth reading.
