Hi, I'm Sue, a disabled person who needs to work from home. I'm hugely proficient and highly experienced in my field, with many letters of recommendation. I edit, write, and understand statistics. I've been a peer reviewer and a managing editor within academic fields. I'm also a registered lay counsellor with an interest in coaching people to prevent burnout.
I've been working as a freelance academic editor for the past seven years, mainly through Scribbr but also for various publishers on short-term contracts. I've also edited fiction and non-academic books. I was a legal editor for three years. I'm an accredited text editor through the Professional Editors' Guild of SA.
I'm statistically literate.
Some of my friends are journalists or news sub-editors, so I know a good deal about that line of work too.
In addition, I'm a writer and have self-published books and other documents. I have coached and tutored other writers and editors as well as academic students.
I've also counselled and coached clients in the wellness field.
