Global English Editing started as a professional editing company. That background shapes how we approach our blog. We apply the same attention to accuracy, sourcing, and clarity that we bring to editing academic papers and manuscripts.
This page explains how our articles are researched, written, reviewed, and maintained.
How Articles Are Produced
Every article begins with a topic that our editorial team believes is worth covering. We don’t publish for the sake of volume. If something doesn’t meet a real reader need or add something to the existing conversation, it doesn’t get written.
Our writers research their topics before drafting. For psychology and personal development content, this means consulting peer-reviewed research, established frameworks, and reputable sources. For lifestyle and relationship content, it means drawing on lived experience alongside expert perspectives. Writers are expected to understand the subject matter they are covering, not just summarise search results.
Once drafted, articles go through an editorial review process. This involves checking factual claims, verifying sources, improving clarity, and ensuring the piece reads well. We look for unsupported assertions, broken logic, and anything that could mislead a reader.
Sourcing and Attribution
When we cite research, statistics, or expert findings, we link to the original source wherever possible. This means linking to the published study, the institution, or the primary report rather than to a secondary summary or news article about it.
We favour sources from established institutions: university research departments, peer-reviewed journals, recognised health organisations, and credible news outlets. If a claim can’t be adequately sourced, we either reframe it as opinion, attribute it clearly, or remove it.
Not everything we write is research-based. Many of our articles draw on the personal experience and professional backgrounds of our writing team. When that’s the case, the article makes it clear. We don’t dress up personal opinion as scientific fact.
Our Writing Team
The blog is led by the Brown family, who founded Global English Editing. Graeme Brown, Brendan Brown, Jeanette Brown, Lachlan Brown, and Justin Brown all contribute regularly and set the editorial direction. They’re supported by a wider team of writers with backgrounds across psychology, education, wellness, relationships, and personal development.
Writers are assigned to topics that match their knowledge and experience. A writer covering anxiety and mental health has a background in psychology. A writer covering ageing and retirement draws on direct personal experience with those life stages. We don’t ask people to write outside their area.
You can learn more about each contributor on our Meet the Writers page.
Corrections
We make mistakes. When we do, we fix them.
If an article contains a factual error, an incorrect statistic, or a broken source link, we update it. For significant corrections, we note the change at the bottom of the article so readers know it’s been amended. Minor fixes like typos or formatting issues are corrected without annotation.
We also run regular quality checks across our published content. Articles are periodically reviewed for accuracy, and outdated information is updated or flagged. This is especially important for health and psychology content, where research evolves.
If you spot an error in any of our articles, please let us know. You can reach us through our contact page.
What We Don’t Do
We don’t accept payment for editorial coverage. No article on this blog is sponsored or paid for by a third party. If we recommend a product, service, or resource, it’s because our writers actually use it or believe it’s worth recommending.
We don’t publish medical advice. Our psychology and wellness content is informational and based on published research and personal experience, but it’s not a substitute for professional help. Where appropriate, we encourage readers to consult qualified professionals.
We don’t manufacture expertise. Our writers write about what they know. The bios on our Meet the Writers page describe each person’s actual background, not inflated credentials.
