Whether you simply want a fresh pair of eyes to check spelling and punctuation, or you’re looking for a more in-depth intervention, I can help.

I’m Miranda K. Lloyd and I’m a freelance editor and proofreader based in the Scottish Highlands. I work with clients all over the world. Thank you for visiting my site.

Why Choose Me?

I’m experienced in editing and proofreading non-fiction materials, from blog posts, essays and end-of-year reports to press releases, magazines and academic papers. I can help you simplify complex concepts and make your writing more accessible to wider audiences.

If you’re looking for help to edit or proofread your novel, short story or group anthology, I can also provide the support you need.

Experience

Alongside a career in Marketing and Communications for the not-for-profit sector, I began freelancing in 2019.

I work with individuals from all walks of life and organisations of all sizes. I’m particularly experienced in working with non-native English speakers and clients with disabilities.

I’m committed to maintaining editorial excellence. That’s why I’m proud to be an Intermediate Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), formerly known as the Society for Editors and Proofreaders (SfEP).

When you choose a member of CIEP to carry out your proofreading and editing work, you can be sure they’re following CIEP’s Code of Practice, adhering to recognised professional standards, following industry standard best practice and making a commitment to regular training and continuous professional development.
