Testimonials
Tremendous work. You clearly proved the value of hiring a copyeditor!'
NGO Director – Washington, DC
I was impressed by the work Robert did in proofreading my book. He has an eye for detail which picked up things I overlooked. He has an excellent appreciation of the English language and can identify better ways to express things accurately and succinctly. I highly recommend his work.
