Barbara Laurent

I have been a proofreader and editor specializing in books in the practical and creative hobbies fields for many years.

Passionate about DIY, especially sewing and knitting, I am a jack-of-all-trades and I like to test new things and the latest techniques whenever possible. My knowledge and experience thus allow me to proofread specialized books, correct and rewrite tutorials, as well as translate books and knitting and crochet patterns from English to French. I have already collaborated with several publishing houses, such as Ouest-France, Turbulences Presse, Hachette, Eyrolles, Merci les Livres, Un Dimanche après-midi, Éditions de Saxe... and continue to work with the majority of them.
