Editing and Proofreading

 

​

​

Athena Copy provides professional book editing services to writers of genre fiction and narrative non-fiction.

 

Expertise that allows your voice to break through the smoke.

 

I'm Kat,  book editor and proofreader, specialising in genres that cover sex, sleuths, swords and spaceships. Based in central Scotland, accepting work from all over the world.

 

I am enthusiastic, approachable, creative and efficient. I love reading, always have, and feel very lucky to have a job that allows me to give stories the wings that will allow them to soar. Together, we will make your story the best that it can be.​

 

When you hire me to line edit, copy-edit or proofread your work, you will deal with me directly from start to finish.

 

As a professional member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (the CIEP), I am bound by their Code of Practice. I am a member of the Association of Independent Publishing Professionals (AIPP), and I am trained in proofreading and copy-editing by the SfEP (the Society for Editors and Proofreaders, now the CIEP) and Chapterhouse.
