Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I support authors, publishers, and companies in making their texts clear and reader-friendly. My focus is on the content, stylistic, and linguistic revision of fiction and non-fiction, including detailed editing, proofreading, and plot optimization. It is particularly important to me to refine texts for the target audience while preserving the individual style of the authors. I work on manuscripts, articles, and online texts, delivering print-ready results that captivate readers and clearly convey the message.
