Professional Editing

You write it – I edit it.

Good editing is an invisible but essential part of great writing: read a clear, concise, engaging, grammatically clean piece of prose and you can be sure that a professional editor lingers in the background. Professional editing is most noticeable when it’s absent.

I will work with you and your manuscript at whatever editing level is needed, from substantive editing to proofreading, to ensure that your style and message is enhanced by clean, concise prose with logical coherence and internal consistency.

Writing Tutorials & Workshops

You specify your writing needs – I teach you writing skills for a lifetime.

Do you or your employees need a refresher on writing skills? These are just a few of the topics I can address:

• Writing step by step
  
• Solving your punctuation woes
• Moving past writer's block
  
• Clarifying your writing
  
• Cleaning up your spelling
• English grammar, from beginning to end
• Writing in various genres, from magazine writing to press releases

In a world where effective use of writing strategies and mechanics are increasingly rare, an understanding of grammar is once again being seen as essential to writing well. And learning grammar doesn’t have to be like taking your daily dose of cod liver oil. In addition to being a vital basis for good writing, grammar can be fascinating!

I will tailor and deliver workshops for individuals or groups in an enjoyable, safe learning environment. The skills you acquire will last a lifetime – you’ll use them every time you put fingers to keyboard.

Freelance Writing

You provide the idea, topic, or notes – I do the writing.

If you have an idea that needs form and structure, I will put it in writing with your audience in mind. Depending on your requirements, I will research the topic, conduct interviews and/or work from your rough notes or draft to produce a document ready for publication.

I have written on a variety of topics in a wide range of genres – reports, brochures, manuals, press releases, articles, profiles, and reviews, to name a few.
