Hi, my name is Julie Dixon and I am a freelance proofreader and editor. I started this journey working for a small publisher in Oxfordshire, proofreading on paper using BSI proof-correction marks. I then worked at Blackwell Science, editing and proofreading copy ready for digital publication.
After an interlude working in diabetes care, training and working as a staff nurse, and travelling in the USA and Europe, I decided to return to the world of words.
Needing a refresher, I studied Proofreading and Editing with the College of Media and Publishing, qualifying with distinction.
