Editing, Proofreading and Manuscript Appraisals

As Heather Hammonds Creative Services, I can provide you with expert advice and service in any of these areas.


Editing and Proofreading

I edit and proofread work for both publishing houses and individual authors (thesis, essays, manuscripts, corporate booklets etc.) Rates available on enquiry. Please visit my Contact page if you wish to make an enquiry.

A few examples of my editing work include:


Shattering the Cancer Myth
Author: Katrina Ellis
Publisher: Hinkler Books Australia
Katrina Ellis, naturopath and iridologist, tells the story of her incredible battle with cancer, which she won with the help of natural medicine. She then goes on to provide a wealth of helpful information for cancer sufferers and their families on how to fight this disease and win, just as she did. An inspiring story and excellent self-help book.

Manuscript Appraisals
As an author with many years experience, particulary in the field of children's writing, I am able to offer other authors a manuscript appraisal service. I specialise in manuscript appraisals of children's novels, chapter books and educational manuscripts and can provide a detailed appraisal with further suggestions on finding a publisher or an agent for the particular work, should this be desired. I am also available to judge competitions Testimonials and fees can be obtained by making contact with me via my Contact page.
