"Axius Publishing has made use of Full Stop’s services for the past five years. It is a pleasure to work with someone as professional and committed as Maureen Miller. For her, language really does matter, right down to the last comma, colon or full stop.

It is rare to find someone these days who not only has the knowledge, but is also passionate about the correct use of language. Quality editorial is a primary requirement for all our publications and it is a pleasure to come across, and work with, someone of Maureen’s calibre. She always adds enormous value to any piece of writing".

"I have had the pleasure of having my work sub-edited by Maureen Miller while contributing to Sawubona magazine.

Highly recommended."

"Maureen is one of those fabulous editors who are able to fix copy with tact and objectivity.

She has a supportive non-judgemental personality and sports a decidedly positive approach to life.

I can recommend Maureen without reservation."

Tess Fairweather

"Maureen’s attention to detail when proofreading our stories and articles is  absolutely refreshing. She also thinks 'laterally', which adds enormous value since I can count on her to point out inaccuracies or misleading paragraphs that otherwise would have gone unnoticed. I love her honesty and transparency and she’s not shy to tell me when her working hours stop – I respect that! Her word is her bond and she has never disappointed me on delivering her work within the time frame promised and at the quality standards which exceed my expectations."


Roland Hein
MD, Performance Enhancement & Rewards

"Maureen has been the sub-editor of Sawubona magazine since May 2007. She is an extremely valuable and dedicated part of a small team that ensures the magazine’s consistency and quality. Her “beady” eye, attention to detail and technical editing skills are unmatched.

She is a pleasure to work with and her reliability and willingness to do more than is required of her ensures the smooth flow of a magazine with tight monthly deadlines."

Mario d’Offizi
Assistant Editor, Sawubona
