Hello, and welcome. My name is Cindy Dockendorff and I'm a freelance editor from Halifax, Nova Scotia. I have a certificate in editing from Simon Fraser University and have been editing since 2014, but recently have come to focus on social impact, education, and environment. I'm reliable and easy to work with, and I love to connect with businesses and authors as a collaborator, coach, and thought partner.

​

My experience includes

​

• Novels, novellas, and short stories

• Textbooks, instructor manuals, and other learning materials

• Brochures, websites, surveys, and marketing copy

• Proposals, reports, and press releases

• Cookbooks, nonfiction, and self-help manuals

• Scientific reports, assessments, and proposals

• IT white papers, interviews, and articles.

​

One of the things I enjoy about being a freelance editor is the variety of materials I get to work on. I have particular expertise in

​

• Education

• Social justice and impact

• Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI)

• History

• Conscious and plain language.

​

I also know a thing or two about business management, IT and software development, parenting, cooking, baking, and lifestyle materials. My favourite fiction genres to work on are dystopian and post-apocalyptic fiction, romantic and paranormal fiction of any kind, fantasy, thrillers, and suspense novels.
