Three FREE eBooks for purchasers of the course!

As an added incentive to purchase The No-Nonsense Proofreading Course (as if any were needed!), I've added three FREE eBooks, totalling more than 340 pages on the subjects of English grammar, punctuation and the importance of the proofreader.

If you've already purchased the course, don't panic! Just drop me a line and I'll send you a link to the free eBooks.
