I am a native English speaker living in South Africa. I have a BA degree in English and extensive experience in all types of writing, including newspaper and magazine journalism. I also have comprehensive editing experience on newspapers, magazines, books, newsletters and academic theses. I work fast and accurately and am able to consistently meet tight deadlines. I am also completely at home in British or U.S. English. Because of the exchange rate, I am able to offer a lower U.S. dollar rate and still be paid a reasonable fee in South African Rand.
