So
‘Having worked closely with Rebecca on countless journal articles over the years, I can confidently say that you will struggle to find a better copy-editor. She is meticulous and patient, with an impeccable sense of clarity and style; she is also utterly reliable and a pleasure to work with. She has my very strongest endorsement.’
Prof. Martin Crowley, General Editor, French Studies
‘Rebecca has been truly wonderful to work with and has made my life as editor much easier. She has a tremendous eye for detail and sense when copyediting; her record-keeping and record-control are impeccable; she is happy to correspond with authors on my behalf; her communications are unfailingly professional, courteous, and efficient. I cannot recommend her highly enough!’
Dr Jennifer Rushworth, Editor, French Studies Bulletin
‘Rebecca has proofread and copyedited for Pushkin and Gallic Books for many years. She has been particularly brilliant working with French translation via Gallic Books, and is valued by the whole production team for her close attention in proofreading. I recommend her wholeheartedly.’
India Edwards, Pushkin Press
‘I’ve commissioned Rebecca for several proofreading projects and have found her work to be of very high quality – accurate, reliable, and well judged. Rebecca is responsive and meets deadlines – she’s a pleasure to work with and has rapidly become one of a small pool of trusted freelance editors.’
Robert Davies, The Folio Society
‘Rebecca has been wonderful to work with on a diverse set of titles. She has a fantastic eye for those minor errors that creep in unnoticed to books at proof stage. Her proofing skills – and particularly her expertise in French studies – make her a much-valued freelancer. Dependable, perceptive, and professional; I highly recommend Rebecca.’
Amy Salter, Reaktion Books
