Copywriting, Proofreading, Editing, Transcription
Decorus Lacuna is a network of wordsmiths: copywriters, copyeditors, rewriters, proofreaders, transcribers.
Our writers have A’Levels in English, and degrees in English, literature, law, business and marketing, journalism. Our proofreaders have both BAs and MAs in English and several years professional proofreading experience.
Many of our writers are accomplished poets, screenwriters and short story writers: people with a love of language and a passionate interest in - and knowledge of - the power of writing; and others have English or creative writing teaching experience.
Copywriting
The Decorus Lacuna copywriting service differs from its competitors in that its focus is on working with words - not simply generating sales copy or putting together text that pushes selected keywords. Language and writing are personal passions of ours, and it is for this reason that we choose to work in this field.
Our extensive experience of writing for the web means that we have sufficient knowledge of SEO to craft the effective keyword-rich text that our clients need, but that we are also able to write copy that people actually want to read! Language is both a tool and a pleasure, and we create copy that reflects this.
Proofreading and Copyediting
Our proofreading service is fast, accurate, provided by experienced proofreaders with Masters qualifications in English – and costs only £0.01 per word. We correct errors in spelling, grammar, syntax and capitalisation, and are also able to suggest changes in tone and wording.
Lacuna is the Latin for ‘missing words’, and this name was chosen to reflect our fervent belief in the power and importance of editing. Writing should have maximum force in the minimum of words. Short, sharp shocks. Whether startling, witty, controversial or heart-warming, writing works best when it is concise.
Our copyediting and rewriting services can be as subtle or as extensive as the client requests. We reword, rewrite, weed out awkward syntax and frail wording, and return copy that delivers more powerful and more immediate punches.
Completed proofreading and copyediting assignments are returned in two forms: one document showing our changes, the other with the changes made. In this way, we hope to aid our clients in better proofreading and copyediting their own work in the future.
