My name is Michael Doig. Based in Suffolk, I am a freelance proofreader and copy-editor, providing high-quality, affordable editorial services to authors, academics, students and small & medium-sized businesses who wish to maximise the impact of their written output.


Whether it is an initial edit, a line-by-line edit, or you simply need someone to proofread for errors before submitting your work, Just a Word can provide a professional service to ensure your manuscript, promotional literature or website is polished and error-free.


Whether you are based in the UK or internationally, I can edit the following:



I offer a genuine, fast and reliable service. Manuscripts can be sent to me in Word format by email. For peace of mind, I am happy to provide a free sample edit – just email a few pages of your document, together with the total word count, and I will return it to you with corrections and a quote.


Irrespective of the nature or purpose of your document or website, Just a Word is committed to ensuring that your commission meets the highest possible standards required for publication or online presence.  I will check spelling, punctuation, grammar and make sure your manuscript or similar text conforms to recognised publishing standards. Attention to detail is essential and all work is guaranteed confidential.
