Peter the Proofer finds typos in his sleep.
He spells in several languages!
After ten years around universities, Peter is naturally pedantic. His work began on a charitable basis — editing the PhDs of friends and scientists. Since then he's edited every imaginable kind of document. You don't pay until you're happy with the job.
“Peter's editing transformed my thesis. His attention to detail is extraordinary.”
