Editor. Writer. Proofreader. Word nerd.
My experience encompasses many facets of the communications world, but editing is my passion. I draw on my experience as a magazine editor and writer, newspaper reporter, marketing communications executive, and book editor to help my clients’ writing shine.
I work with authors, businesses, and individuals who want to improve their writing. My most recent projects: editing many nonfiction books, numerous novels, blog posts, promotional materials, book blurbs, opinion pieces, online magazine articles, confidential business proposals and presentations, e-books, and web content.
All editing projects are considered.
- Manuscripts – memoirs, fiction, nonfiction, children’s books
- Book blurbs/back cover material/descriptions (edit or rewrite & refresh)
- Business proposals and other documents
- Articles
- Scripts
- Marketing materials
- Blog posts
- Presentations/PowerPoint
- E-books
- Web content
- Short stories
I enjoy working on all kinds of projects, large and small. So whether it’s editing an action-adventure novel or rewriting job descriptions to make them ideal matches for a national wireless company’s upbeat, fast-paced culture, I apply my attention to detail and creativity to every job. My tools include The Chicago Manual of Style (used by most book publishers) and The Associated Press Stylebook.
