About Dominique

MY PROFESSION
As a professional proofreader and editor, I review, correct, and reformulate your writing: manuscripts, plays, academic papers, websites, press articles, brochures, CVs and cover letters, magazines, activity reports, interviews, etc.

MY SKILLS
· In-depth knowledge of French grammar rules and their complexities, and of typography according to the standards of the Imprimerie Nationale. Writing and teaching skills.
· Proficiency in office software and CMS.

MY WORK
· Elimination of all spelling, grammar, syntax, conjugation, and punctuation errors.
· Alerting to misinterpretations, redundancies, solecisms, repetitions, and awkward phrasing, with suggestions for synonyms or reformulations.
· Complete rewriting of certain passages if necessary.
· Formatting in Word: harmonizing paragraphs (indentations, spacing before/after, line spacing) and fonts, checking word spacing, eliminating widows and orphans, generating tables of contents, indexes, and creating cross-references or hyperlinks.

MY METHOD
I start by discussing your needs and expectations with you via email or phone, followed by several check-ins during the correction process.
I reread your document at least twice to ensure no errors are missed, and if necessary, I add comments with explanations or suggested reformulations.

My goal is to support you in your project with trust, by delivering high-quality work, both in terms of content and form.

MY RATES
My rates range from 3 to 6 euros per page, with discounts for larger volumes, but vary depending on the complexity of the document.
Payment plans are available. Feel free to contact me to discuss your project.

Working with Dominique was a real pleasure. She adapted to the context of the mission (editing a fantasy manuscript) and provided personalized, suitable, comprehensive, and relevant proofreading/editing services. Communication is clear and pleasant, and deadlines were largely met. In short, we will not hesitate to call on her for future assignments!
