About

I'm a writer, proofreader, and editor with over 30 years of professional experience and academic work in a wide variety of fields. I have worked on numerous editing projects at my jobs and as a freelancer, including several book-length and professional journal manuscripts, resumes, training and policy/procedural manuals, and newsletters.

Your specific needs drive my work. I can do proofreading and light editing or full content editing with fact/resource checking. My specialties are memoir and self-help, but if you have another project you need edited, contact me so we can discuss. I give the same meticulous attention to detail to a newsletter as I would to a full-length manuscript. If you have a full-length book manuscript, brochure, newsletter, training materials, company procedural manual, article, essay, or emails you need perfected for publication, I would love to discuss with you!

Although I generally write and edit according to The Chicago Manual of Style, I am familiar with AP and APA, and I have also adapted editing work to a variety of house styles.
