I work in English, my mother tongue, and in Italian, my adopted language, providing editorial and translation services to publishers and authors looking to go beyond their primary market or language of origin
Editing
Copy editing, language editing, application of house style… I work on the manuscript before page layout to transform it into a book ready for publication
Translation and revision
I translate mainly, but not exclusively, from Italian into English, and I review translations in both languages to ensure accuracy and quality
Proofreading
I check the proofs for typos and grammatical errors and to ensure editorial and graphic consistency before the book is sent to print

Stories of satisfaction from my clients
Working with Laura Clarke was an excellent experience, from start to finish. She showed great attention to detail, cultural sensitivity and a deep knowledge of both English and Italian. She always delivered accurate editing within the agreed timeframe, and was always open to discussion and feedback. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of quality editing services, as she combines technical expertise with professionalism and reliability.
I started working with Laura Clarke for the language editing and translation revision (in English and Italian translation) of complex works of academic non-fiction. I am really very satisfied with the quality of her work, which has been accurate and coherent with the academic discipline. Laura has always adhered to the correct terminology and language register; she has also accommodated the authors’ requirements with precision. In addition, our collaboration has been impeccable. I highly recommend Laura’s services to anyone looking for reliability and professionalism.
Check out my blog
Not only am I passionate about editing, translating and proofreading, but I also love writing too. My blog is intended as a space for creative reflection in two languages on a number of topics that are close to my heart, including some that are totally unrelated to publishing and my profession.
