Maybe you like to write and have a true way with words, but are unsure of your grammar and punctuation usage, or you are busy and don’t have time to check and recheck your brand’s content. Others simply prefer to have a second pair of eyes peek at their words just to be sure they are perfect. In each case, a proofreader or editor is needed.
Proofreading is the practice of looking over written content and ensuring it has the correct punctuation, spelling, and grammar. Editing is the practice of diving deep into the content and correcting or making notice of sentence structure, style continuity, legibility, clarity, and more.
Most edit first then proofread, and that is satisfactory. I, on the other hand, proof, edit, proof. That way I have no distractions while I thoroughly edit the piece, and there is always one last look, or proof, to ensure its perfection.
Flawless spelling, smart word choice, clean grammar, consistent style, and true clarity are only a few important components of your content. If there are flaws, people will become distracted and may question the competency of your brand or content.
I edit and I proofread written content, web content, books, newsletters, and more. CONTACT ME today and let’s talk about making your words represent your brand or product in a positive, effective way.

Hello, my friend. I am Teresa Adams. Currently, I live in Western Massachusetts, but I spent twenty years in Eastern North Carolina near Camp Lejeune and Topsail Island, so I call two places home. The beach with the warm salted air and the New England woods with crunchy brown leaves each call to me, so I answer to both.
My name is also Jack and I have just a few trades. Writing is what I do best, but I also love to play songs on my red piano, walk barefoot in the woods that surround my house, and bake sweet treats like cream puffs and crème brûlée. There’s something about opening up a soft vanilla bean and scraping out the delicacies inside. I found a knack for using old items like quilts and jars to decorate new spaces, and I can knit anything with four rightish angles.
The old me is someone who used to fight fire with the coolest group of people, and a girl who was married to a hero. I now attend Westfield State University as a non-traditional student with the most loving and talented group of professors and other English majors.
When I have a moment, I play a card game called pitch with my four sons, sit with my many chickens who all have their own names like Norma Jean, Peow, and Djin Jarin, and the doors on my Jeep will be off from May until September. It is all wonderful therapy for some difficult writing I sometimes do.
In the past year I began my memoir about my life as a war widow and committed to finishing it before summer opens her arms and buds. I will finish the book in order to clear my mind and make room for the next big venture, some freelance work, and upcoming important blog projects, which I’ll do at home.
I currently live in an old white farmhouse next to a red barn with three of my four sons. My oldest graduated from North Carolina State and lives at the beach in North Carolina. We are kept company by three German shepherds, two cats who wear tuxedos, sixteen chickens, a few mice who live in the basement, and a bearded dragon, Ringo.
