Ewe Editorial Services

2026 Ewart-Daveluy Award winner for Canadian Watercolours and Drawings in the Royal Ontario Museum, Volume 3. Crafting fine indexes made in Canada since 2012. To each project, I bring loving care and a very high level of attention to detail to honour the text and the needs of a diverse readership.

I work mainly with academic presses and authors on scholarly books in the humanities and social sciences. Museum publications are of special interest to me. Occasionally, I enjoy a good trade book, too. Drawing on over twenty years of experience as a copy editor and proofreader, I also offer proofreading/indexing combinations.

Art, environmental studies, fashion and textiles, food and nutrition, health, and yoga are topics of special interest to me. Other subjects I have indexed include China, cotton, sheep farming, the Toronto Raptors, and trees.

My education includes two MAs in English literature and a Publishing Certificate from Ryerson (now Toronto Metropolitan) University.

I love variety and welcome all inquiries. For a detailed project list, please visit my website: https://eweeditorialservices.com/project-list/.

“Marnie was tremendous to work with as an indexer and proofreader. Her index work is precise, rigorous and elegant. I felt like I better understood my own argument upon seeing it reflected in Marnie’s wise indexing decisions. She is a delight to work with. Likewise, on the proofreading front she has an eagle eye and is utterly committed to excellence. It was very reassuring to know that Marnie was in my corner, ensuring that the final text would be error free. I can’t recommend her indexing and proofreading work enough.”

“Working with Marnie was a true pleasure. Her indexing work was both intelligent and insightful. She clearly understood the material and the potential audience in a way that allowed her to construct an excellent index for my book. She also provided editorial feedback that improved the overall accuracy of my book. Marnie’s time management was excellent; she met every deadline and offered me flexibility when I could not do so. I would definitely work with Marnie again, and I would highly recommend her to others!”
