Client Success Stories: Proofreading & Editing
Alice, Auckland

"I found Marion through the NZ Institute of Business Studies, an institution that I respect and have also graduated from. We initially met over a zoom call to build a rapport, and then I instructed Marion what type of proofreading and light editing I wanted on my children’s fiction story.
Marion did a thorough proofread using Microsoft Word Track Changes, and picked up many errors that I overlooked, hence you should always use someone else to proofread your work! I will call upon Marion again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking quality work." |

"Marion Metz was hired to proofread and edit my recently published book, "A Touch of Madness".
Marion did an excellent job of proofreading and correcting all the typos and mistakes made when writing this book. I have no hesitation in recommending her and the service she provides. Marion met all the time lines agreed to, and delivered the completed manuscript on the due date, she has a very pleasant personality, and was extremely good to work with." |

"Marion provided an essential proof-reading service for the Golden Bay Writers' Group short story collection. She highlighted inconsistencies within stories and corrected spelling and grammatical errors that had not been picked up by others. Additionally, she made some helpful suggestions for rephrasing to improve flow, whilst never inhibiting the author's writing style. Thank you!"

"Marion helped us with proof reading and the formatting of a book of short stories and poems. She was always cheerful, prompt and professional. If you need a reliable proof reader, or help with formatting, place your trust in Marion. I have absolute faith she will deliver everything you need. Marion’s attention to detail was excellent. She picked up mistakes that others had missed and offered logical explanations for suggested changes. She preserved style and thank goodness she enjoyed the content! I’m about to ask her to work with us again!"

"Every writer needs that one "go to" person they know will read their words and give them honest feedback - Marion Metz is my "go to" person! Not only does she make all the structural and grammatical corrections, she has the ability to enhance the topic with her editing suggestions.
Marion is everything a true professional copy-editing & proofreading partner should be and more; she is detailed oriented, on-time or early with your deliverable and she truly cares about your work as much as you do! I highly recommend Marion Metz to anyone looking for copy-editing & proofreading services. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" |

"I had a great experience working with Marion Metz. I was in need of fast editing services, because a few deadlines were closing in quick. Marion, came to my rescue.
Her style made it easy for me to make the changes I needed to make. This meant the grammar police did not need to arm themselves with judgements, and my spelling didn’t send off any ‘stupid’ alarms. Marion has completed three editing projects for me and I have more projects lining up for her sharp eyes and grammar skills. If you have written anything, or plan to write anything, it is always wise to have a professional look it over before you share your wisdom. Do yourself a favor and hire Marion to edit your work, so your readers can enjoy the garden of your intellect without weeding through the chaos of your thoughts." |

"I had a fantastic experience working with Marion! Marion’s attention to detail is excellent, and that’s exactly what any writer looks for when working with a proofreader or editor. Any changes she suggests are clearly explained, a style sheet is provided to the author, and she’s always happy to answer any questions throughout the process. What I really loved about working with Marion is her positive and enthusiastic attitude. She made the process fun and easy. She also works very quickly and very efficiently. I would highly recommend Marion to any author looking for a proofreader/editor. She’s great!"

"Marion did the proofread of my book A New Beginning and she made the entire process a joy! She was an absolute delight to work with and she reviewed my thoroughly and responded to all my questions in a timely manner. She was also very conscious about my deadline and delivered her work early. I can't wait for Marion to edit my next book!!"
