CONFIDENCE in COPY EDITING
Andrea Purdon
Professional copy editing that Aligns with your Vision
I use a collaborative approach to copy editing. I believe every piece of writing is a creative achievement. My role is to preserve the integrity of your voice and to refine your work so that your vision unfolds with clarity and precision.

SERVICES
Copy editing refines your writing for clarity, consistency, and readability while preserving your voice. It includes correcting grammar, punctuation, and style, and improving flow—particularly in nuanced or conceptually complex writing.
Proofreading is the final review of a text to catch surface-level errors before publication. It focuses on correcting spelling, punctuation, formatting, and minor inconsistencies without making substantial changes to the content.
Who I am
Andrea Purdon
A
The reason I became a copy editor was equal parts my love of language and the deep satisfaction that comes through the flow and refinement of it.
​
I approach the work through the lens of partnership and collaboration, so that I can support writers in bringing their work to completion while honouring their highest standards.
​​​
I have always had a deep appreciation for the elements that make up a fine piece of writing; the subtle nuances, perfect grammar, the strength of good structure, and the beauty of the layout.
Please send me a message! I would love to see where you are at in your process and if we can collaborate to produce the finest version of your writing.
