About
I’m Shey Hargreaves, a writer and editor based in Norwich, UK. I’m a member of the Chartered Institute for Editors and Proofreaders. I copyedit and proofread a wide range of manuscripts including academic theses and reports, content for PR and design agencies, and public engagement materials for branches of my local NHS. I am meticulous, with a keen eye for detail and consistency across large, complex documents, and I excel at turning technical or academic material into clear, flowing, engaging content. I trained as a scriptwriter for film, theatre and audio, and I’ve written and produced stage scripts (Sick) and audio dramas (Badger Watching).
I also provide developmental editing for fiction authors in partnership with literary consultancy Fiction Feedback. In addition to writing, I script corporate videos, podcasts, and live-event content, digesting large amounts of information into succinct, entertaining scripts that capture the key points of a product, event or topic.
