GW, a leading publishing vendor, is actively recruiting freelance copyeditors for nursing/medical/health science textbooks.


Assignments are made on a project-by-project basis, and we have a steady flow of new projects all year long. The majority of our work follows AMA style, so we need copyeditors who are reliable, experienced, consistent, and flexible. If that’s you, keep reading
