Ireland
As an associate member of the Association of Freelance Editors and Proofreaders of Ireland (AFEPI), I have 7+ years of experience in the fields of publishing, content writing, blogging, copy editing and proofreading. I have worked in various roles, ranging from freelancer to project manager. I am creative and dynamic, with excellent written communication skills in English and Spanish, and committed to producing high-quality content with quick turnaround. I have experience writing on a diverse range of subject matter, including travel, literature, language learning, fintech, investment, cryptocurrency, and edge computing.
All clients I have worked with so far have been very happy with the quality and timeliness of my writing, which has ranged from blog articles, whitepapers, book reviews, press releases, events programmes and social media posts. In addition to writing to improve your website's SEO, I can write engagingly and with authority about a wide range of subjects, while adopting which voice or tone is appropriate to your specific project.
In addition to copy editing and proofreading, I also offer in-depth developmental editing services, which include fact-checking and working with the author to rearrange sentence structure, rephrase awkward wording and generally ensure the narrative structure of the writing is engaging for English-language readership. I have expertise with both UK and US grammar and spelling styles, and can adapt to clients' house styles easily. Having worked with fiction books as well as nonfiction, I am conscious of working around an author's particular style or colloquial use of language. I am also comfortable copy editing different styles of reference lists and bibliographies for academic books.
Fans of intrigue and drama at elite boarding schools, à la Gossip Girl, will find a lot to love in this thought-provoking exploration of race and racism, identity, and queerphobia, that is also a love letter to classic teen romcoms.
by Anna Benn Being able to work with words for a living is a privilege I've been working towards for most of my life. It's been a long journey from my early days of content writing at a penny a word, to working in-house at a Dublin publishing company, to deciding to continue the work ...
On the surface, Noemí Taboada of Silvia Moreno-Garcia's latest novel Mexican Gothic makes for an unlikely Gothic heroine - she's practical, self-possessed, and with a hedonistic streak (she likes fancy clothes, parties, and driving around in convertibles).
For Michael, the engineer protagonist of Adrian Duncan's new novel, lovers' entwined arms are a reminder of the connections of girders on a suspension bridge. For readers sated with sensitive literary heroes, Duncan's analytical and oblique approach to relationships could come as a relief.
If you have a special lady in your life, you without a doubt want to make her feel valued and appreciated. So when birthdays, anniversaries and the holiday season roll around, you'll want to get her the perfect gift. While there are the time-honoured favourites of chocolates, jewellery and perfume, don't be afraid to think outside the box.
Have you ever been stuck for the perfect gift to give on a special occasion? Or looking for a quirky way to showcase your feelings for a loved one? Give them the perfect compilation of digital mementoes with VideoBook, an elegant, hand-bound photo book for showcasing your most meaningful photo and video memories.
Most of us take so many photos that it's something we do almost automatically. We're so used to sharing our special moments on Instagram and Snapchat, that we forget how meaningful it is to sit down with a hardbound photo book.
It was 2007 when I first came to Dublin, at the apex of the Celtic Tiger-fuelled age of optimism and prosperity. While I’d done some travelling before – through the United States, Canada, China and Russia – Dublin was my first experience of (technically) Europe, and I was stunned.
In the age of smartphones and the Internet of Things, we are online everywhere and all the time. Especially during these times of remote work and social distancing, it becomes imperative that our devices allow us to communicate reliably and in real-time.
Malawi, a small, landlocked country in the southeast of Africa, has historically had a very low level of development and industry. Without a coastline and with high rates of transport, the country does not have any key role as an international trade hub. However, Malawi has made remarkable strides in terms of economic and infrastructural development in recent years, with GDP growth projected to hit 4.5% in 2019.
