Nikki Crutchley – Crucial Corrections

  • Proofreading
  • Copy editing

I have a Diploma in Publishing, Editing and Proofreading from NZIBS as well as a Diploma in Library and Information Studies from the Open Polytechnic and a Bachelor of Social Sciences from Waikato University.

I am happy to proofread/copy edit anything from a newsletter, magazine article or thesis to a manuscript (fiction or non-fiction). I check for typographical errors, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, consistent use of language, style and layout (including headings, pagination, and fonts).

My aim is to make you feel confident in sending your piece of work to a publisher.

In the past I've proofread manuscripts, Phd theses, assignments, and newsletters, as well as journals such as ‘Public Sector’ and ‘PSA’. I currently proofread for the Waikato/Bay of Plenty magazine ‘Nourish’.

I pride myself on a quick and efficient turnaround along with a competitive hourly rate.

Leigha at check-it-4u provides an affordable proofreading and editing service for anyone who needs it. Her philosophy is ‘If you can write it, it should be proofread’. Leigha has been proofreading for the last 5 years for friends and acquaintances and has recently formalised her skills by completing a Diploma in Editing, Proofreading and Publishing from the New Zealand Institute of Business Studies (NZIBS).

Past employment has included serving in the Armed Forces (Army) and she had a role of important responsibility as a Driver, VIP Driver, and Dispatcher as well as a leadership role in charge of several people and their administration requirements. This has given Leigha an appreciation not only for hard work, leadership, loyalty and honesty, but also to be able to follow directions and to work independently or as part of a team while retaining a sense of humour and love of life.

Leigha has started her business, check-it-4u, to do what she loves - reading and fine-tuning manuscripts by checking details including spelling and typos, offering suggestions and helping to bring about a polished, outstanding book (theses or essay etc).
