Welcome to Diligent Editorial and Book Production Service

• Are you a managing editor who needs a skilled editor or proofreader with experience in academic publishing? My experience working in-house for presses has taught me the importance of a clean, consistently edited manuscript for the entire production process, budget, and schedule, and I work with this in mind.
• Are you an author looking for expert help in preparing a manuscript for submission to a publisher? I will work with you to ensure that your manuscript is well prepared and will be a credit to you when you present it to acquisitions editors.

​I understand academic publishing. I’ve worked in-house for three publishers, including a top university press, and have been editing books since 2001, focusing exclusively on academic books and journals since 2005. Since establishing Diligent Editorial in 2006, I have edited nearly three hundred academic books and dozens of journal articles. This makes me an ideal "first reader" for your academic manuscript.
