Proofreading Approach
You've done the writing – for print, digital, or publication. My role is to make sure your words are clear, consistent, and distraction-free.
Proofreading, for me, is about balance: ensuring nothing interrupts the reading experience.
I only step in where it's needed.
When proofreading, I will be looking for the small details that others might miss: spelling errors, grammar slips, awkward punctuation, and inconsistencies – all the things that will affect your credibility, and the reader's experience.
In return, you'll receive a version that reads as you intended, with full control over what to keep or change.
And, if you have any questions afterwards, just drop me an email.
What you can expect:
Detail-focused proofreading
Respect for your writing
Constructive feedback
Follow-up support
Proofreading Process
What you won’t get:
A rushed edit
A know-it-all attitude
Unnecessary changes
A rigid approach that ignores context
I trained with the Publishing Training Centre and am an active member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), the professional body dedicated to upholding high editorial standards.
Professional Standards
Outside of work, you’ll find me reading (surprise, surprise), trying my hand at gardening (with mixed results), crocheting, or enjoying a quiet moment with a double choc mocha.
Beyond Proofreading
Let's Connect
Whatever your project, my job is to make sure your writing reads clearly, consistently, and exactly the way you intended.
I'd love to hear what you're working on.

Kelly Caine/Kemend completed a proofreading edit for me. The editing was detailed, concise, and delivered in a timely manner. Kelly gave me her opinion on aspects of my story, always cognizant of my feelings while delivering honest answers. She was friendly, approachable, and at the same time very professional. I strongly recommend Kelly Caine for all your proofreading needs.
