Dear Val
I am a professional Technical Writer, as well as a copy editor and proofreader. I am a member of the Professional Editors’ Group (PEG). How do I get my name added to your list of editors and proofreaders? I can send you my CV if you would like to see it.
Regards
Anne
Will contact you via email, Anne.

Hi Ondiswa, this is the difference between proof readers and editors.
Copy-editor
Works largely in the realm of books and journals. Reads an author’s text and corrects the grammar, spelling, sentence structure, logical sequencing. But also checks the text for factual accuracy, or at least factual discrepancies. Finally, applies a veneer of consistency throughout the text.
Proofreader
After copy-editing or subediting, the text goes to a designer or a typesetter to be laid out into pages. Once laid out, or typeset, the text (with or without illustrations) has to be proofread (usually against the edited text or a previous typeset version) to remove errors. This is the work of a proofreader, not a copy-editor.
