Editing & Proofreading: Medical, Technical, Scientific. AMA Format.

"New to the entire literary world, I was getting ready to edit and publish my first book. I had a lot of questions and needed someone who could answer them. Diane was great from our first conversation. She had the professionalism of the editor I was looking for and I found that, after our phone call, a lot of my worries were gone. I felt confident that my book would be edited with precision in the time frame I required. She gave me suggestions about things I had never even considered. She is thorough and precise. I interviewed at least five editors before I chose Diane. I will be confident giving her anything to edit from fiction to legal documents. As an author, I need to be able to flow with my creative process and I know that Diane will come in to handle the technical intricacies of my writing." Deneene Florino, Author

"Diane was fantastic. When we spoke by phone she was not only professional, attentive and focused but she was also very personable and someone we enjoyed dealing with very much. When the finished product was returned to us we were overwhelmed by the effort she had exerted. The value of her edits, comments, suggestions and recommendations more than justifies the investment. Thank you!" Brownell O’Connor, Managing Director, Brownell O’Connor Ltd

"During my 22-year tenure as editor of the Journal of Legal Medicine, I worked with excellent in-house and free lance proofreaders provided by four different publishers. None could compare to Diane. Her dedication, conscientiousness, and professionalism were unparalleled. During the 11 years I worked with Diane, I was consistently impressed with her keen eye, her exceptional attention to detail, and her outstanding knowledge of English usage—particularly as she applied it in the context of proofreading scholarly legal articles. Diane was a pleasure to work with—a consummate professional who clearly enhanced the overall quality and integrity of each quarterly issue of the Journal. She is a gem!" Theodore R. LeBlang, JD, Professor and Chair, Department of Medical Humanities, SIU School of Medicine

"Diane Foose was almost overqualified for the editing project. She was professional, fun to work with, insightful and very knowledgeable." Contact info on request

"Diane Foose was a superb editor for my manuscript. She had an excellent grasp of the material and was able to simplify and clarify the text while preserving its nuances. She operated efficiently and always kept a good line of communication open. As a first time author, I had some trepidations about trusting my 'precious baby' to an editor I would only 'meet' over the internet, but Diane made me a believer. Of course, picking the right person is essential——and I have no hesitation in recommending Diane to anyone who is interested in having their manuscript readied for publication——on time and on budget——by a dedicated professional editor."
