Excellent editing

Is excellent editing  just about improving my English?

No, excellent editing for researchers and NGOs involves far more than checking your English. Our most important task is to ensure your text engages with the readers of your story. Can they follow your line of argument (structure)? Is the text written in a style they expect, and is it easy for them to understand (clarity)? And, most important of all, will the final result help you realise your goal (impact)?

So how do you edit texts?

Structure, clarity and purpose are the vital ingredients of any text. So when The Golden Thread edits, that’s what we look for first. Where necessary, we’ll spar with you to spotlight the added value of your organisation, project or research and help you pitch your message successfully. And before we send you the final version, we’ll add the finishing touches, namely spelling, grammar and punctuation (which many people still think excellent editing is all about).

And what texts do you edit?

Good question! The Golden Thread edits Word documents, Excel sheets and PowerPoints on a wide variety of academic subjects and development issues. And we do that for researchers, universities, research institutes, research-driven companies and development NGOs.
