In copy-editing my book manuscript, Phoebe made many suggestions for improvement in different areas—semantics, translation, transliteration, grammar, writing style, fact-checking.
Her meticulous work went far beyond what I expected. In one word, Phoebe is a perfectionist.

Phoebe was very responsive and delivered an excellent job.

The Islamic Texts Society has worked with Phoebe on a number of projects and she is one of the best editors we have found. Phoebe is very organised and her work is highly professional. Her standards are all that a publisher would wish for and her knowledge of Arabic is a great asset for us.
I’m very happy to have found Phoebe. I appreciated her ability to tailor her services to my manuscript’s specific needs. Working to a very tight schedule, she helped me develop a customized style sheet to achieve consistency when discussing sources from multiple languages.
More importantly, she had a knack for discerning the manuscript’s overall strengths and weaknesses, and gave me valuable suggestions for revisions.
She is skilled, professional, and an all-around pleasure to work with.
I submitted my manuscript yesterday. Thank you again for your careful editing and very thoughtful queries—they were really helpful and significantly enhanced my article.

We needed a set of financial and technical proposals reviewed and edited for clarity. Phoebe quickly understood our needs and provided a fast turnaround of greatly improved documents that went on to win us business. Thanks!
Phoebe has reviewed CVs and job applications for increasingly senior positions for me over the years. I appreciate her advice and attention to detail. I feel much more confident having a professional editor in my corner.
