Editorial Support for Researchers, Academics, and Publishers

 

Writing a journal article, thesis, dissertation, or academic book manuscript?

​

I help researchers say what they mean clearly, precisely, and with the confidence their work deserves.

​

I'm Julie Pinborough, a UK-based academic copyeditor and freelance Managing Editor. I edit scholarly work for researchers and PhD candidates, and I also work within the peer-review process itself, supporting academic journals through platforms like ScholarOne and Editorial Manager. Seeing both sides of academic publishing means I know exactly what editors and reviewers are looking for, and where manuscripts usually run into trouble.

​

That might mean:​

​

• ​ Thesis and dissertation editing for clarity, structure, and readability.

• Journal manuscript editing, to get your work submission-ready

• Copyediting, for consistency, accuracy, and polished academic English

​

Whatever stage your work is at, I'll give it the careful, professional attention it needs, suited to your subject and your reader.

​ 

I work with researchers, doctoral candidates, academics, and publishing organisations, all of whom care about clear writing and getting the details right.

​

Alongside my editorial work, I share practical advice for researchers and academics on my blog.

​

You focus on the research. I'll focus on the details.
