“I am thrilled to have discovered Lizzie Gowans and her top-notch editing services. Lizzie works with efficiency, kindness and skill, returning edits in the agreed time frame, and with so much attention to detail. Her comments were bang on the nose, showing a deep understanding of where I was trying to go with the story and of my protagonist and her journey. I got a warm glow when I read what worked well and appreciated the positive feedback as well as the comments that showed where things didn’t quite add up or where better language might have been used. This was my first time working with Lizzie, but it sure won’t be my last.”

“I cannot recommend Lizzie highly enough. She is not only an exceptional copy editor and proofreader but also a true guardian of clarity, flow, and voice. From the start, it was clear she understood my writing style – and more importantly, the emotion behind my words.
Lizzie’s attention to detail is extraordinary. She has an incredible knack for catching even the tiniest of errors, yet her edits always feel gentle and collaborative, never intrusive. She doesn’t just correct grammar and punctuation; she enhances rhythm, ensures consistency, and helps each sentence shine.
What I appreciate most is her sensitivity to tone and nuance. Lizzie understands that every word carries weight, and she works diligently to preserve the author’s voice while elevating the overall quality. Her professionalism, timeliness, and clear communication make working with her a joy.
Thanks to Lizzie, my manuscript is not only polished but also more engaging, cohesive, and confident. She has been an invaluable part of my creative process, and I am deeply grateful for her skill, care, and dedication.
If you are looking for a copy editor and proofreader who will treat your work with as much passion and precision as you do, Lizzie is the one.”

“I have really appreciated Lizzie’s proofreading work and her professional, responsive communication. I was impressed by Lizzie’s attention to detail. As well as providing an excellent proofreading service she made sense of my text which at times was over complicated. Lizzie was very easy to work with and exhibited a real interest in my work and brand. A real pleasure to work with, thoroughly recommend you do too.”
