About
Hi, my name is Richard, I'm a proofreader and copyeditor with a love for all things words, grammar and punctuation. I even have a diploma from the College of Media and Publishing to prove it. Oh, and a BA with First Class Honours in Creative Writing to boot. Whether you’re an author whose story needs an editor's eye to make it shine, or a business wanting to fine-tune your copy, I can help.
TESTIMONIALS
"Richard not only has a precise and thorough ‘good nose’ with which he tracks down all grammar, spelling and punctuation errors like Sherlock Holmes, but he also makes respectful and open suggestions and offers perspectives on wording and content... What I took away from his great work on my tanka novel is a) never again will I publish a book without proper proofreading and editing (mind you, this is coming from a fanatical lone wolf) and b) I will gladly work with him again!"
Kati Mohr (Makoto), Poet
"Having worked with many editors over the course of several years, I was thankful to find information regarding R.C. Thomas, founder of R.C. Editorial, in one of my social media writers’ groups. Richard is a thoughtful, reliable editor who respects your voice, sharpens your writing, and makes the whole process smooth and stress-free."
Lisa H. Owens, Author
"...keen eye for detail and a good grasp of spelling, grammar, punctuation, and style, which will stand Richard in good stead in the workplace... We have no hesitation in supporting Richard’s application for work."
Shuna Meade, Tutor, College of Media and Publishing
