About me

I established ACB Proofreading in 2011, following my retirement from the police service. That's quite an unusual career change, you may be thinking. Not really. One of the skills required of a professional police officer is the ability to write clearly, concisely, accurately and grammatically, with a good eye for detail. This applies whatever the nature of the writing - a simple report, a case file of evidence, a briefing paper or a lengthy policy document. This skill is easily transferrable to the editorial world and has enabled me to help a wide variety of clients.
​
I am a Professional Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP) and follow its Code of Practice, Ensuring Editorial  Excellence.

Working with Andrew on the proofreading of the manuscript for my novel has been a positive experience from beginning to end.  I have every intention of doing so again on future manuscripts.
