“Sarah thoroughly proofread my book, ‘Arab Seafaring, Trade and Civilisation in the Indian Ocean World’, before its submission to the UAE National Library and Archives. Her work was detailed, she was efficient, and she responded quickly. Her assistance was invaluable, and I highly recommend her.”

Michael Quentin Morton, author.

“Sarah has edited my words brilliantly in the past, pointed out subtly where I was wrong (but without quite putting it like that) and made me look far more able than I actually am; and appear as if I am a far better writer than I will ever be. She is careful, punctilious, meticulous and has an eye for detail that is rare in editing today.”

Danny Dorling, author of A Better Politics

“Working with Sarah was an entirely smooth and professional experience. Her copyediting was thorough, attentive to detail, and always respectful of my voice as an author. I deeply appreciated her careful attention to both clarity and nuance — and the whole process was impressively efficient without ever feeling rushed.”

Mehrdad Alipour, author of Negotiating Homosexuality in Islam

“I entrusted Sarah Campbell with proofreading and editing my doctoral thesis at the Free University Berlin. Sarah did a brilliant job. Her proofreading was astute, thorough, and greatly improved the quality of my writing (it is amazing what you don’t notice as an author!). Her edits really helped, not just with formalities but with the quality and flow of the text. I would enthusiastically recommend!”

Matthew D. Stephen, co-author of Contested World Orders
