About / Bio
Experienced, versatile writer and editor. Other skills: interviewing, research, proofreading. Clients range from computer companies to academic institutes to authors of book manuscripts. When editing text, I make sure the final product is readable, lively, and succinct. In writing, I love to use my imagination and creative skills. I truly delight in, and have a passion for, working with words.

Since 2009, I have copyedited more than 60 book manuscripts, for authors all over the U.S. and in other countries. Topics range from business to memoirs to novels to science fiction. I also edit promotional material and magazine articles. On the writing side, my specialty is writing profiles and feature stories for magazines (multimedia, art, education, business), Web site text, blogs.
