Suzanne Schaan

I have over 30 years’ experience as a developmental editor,
copy editor, and proofreader. I have worked in educational publishing across
disciplines, including business, accounting, and social sciences. My goal has
always been to make content clear for readers and learners, which applies to general
nonfiction and academic works as well.

Are you developing teaching or training materials, such
as textbooks, workbooks, or PowerPoint presentations? I can help you organize
the content and present it at the right level. I can also advise you on making
your materials accessible to all users and write alternative text for any
images.

Are you writing a nonfiction book and need help with
the flow and structure or with clarity? I can act as a nonspecialist reader
and identify gaps and inconsistencies. I am also available for general copy
editing or proofreading projects, large or small.

Are you looking for support in creating accessible
materials? I developed and presented a series of webinars on accessibility
considerations for editors and writers and on creating
accessible documents. You can purchase the webinars from Editors Canada or
contact me for help in apply these principles.
