Les Bill Gates’s Summary

Do you need an editor or proofreader?
Do you need an article written?
How about a short story?
Do you need a ghost writer?
Or, do you need some technical writing in the area of mathematics?

Whatever your writing need, I can help you.

I have
• A degree in mathematics from Oxford University.
• A post-graduate Certificate in Education.
• A Diploma in short story writing
• A Certificate of proofreading and editing.

I have taught high school mathematics for more than thirty years and also have a good general
knowledge of the sciences. Together with my recent qualification in proofreading and editing, this potentially makes me an expert at editing and proofreading books or articles of a mathematical or scientific nature.

I have a good command of the English language and have recently finished writing my first
novel. ‘Windows on Our World, Part 1: Hope’, the first of a fantasy trilogy, written under the pen
name of Les Bill Gates, has just been published by Lulu. Visit the page ‘Hope’ to read a chapter
from my novel.

I therefore have the credentials to write, edit or proofread non-fiction or fiction materials, and of
any genre.

In my editing, I bring into play my command of the English language. Whilst always retaining the
original ideas, I can:
• Edit and proofread your documents for spelling, grammatical, and punctuation errors.
• Make style-related changes.
• Ensure accuracy, consistency, and appropriateness of style, format, syntax and spelling.
• Rewrite awkward sentences.
• Make ungrammatical writing readable.

For any kind of creative writing, editing, and proofreading, please don't hesitate to contact me. I
will always approach my chosen projects with enthusiasm, reliability and creativity.
