​Let's resuscitate documents old and new.

Editing brings life to older documents and gives your new docs and books a chance to be heard.

What project do you have that needs to be freshened, updated, shifted in tone, formatted for readability—or all of the above? It might be:
  • The book or report you've been writing, and writing, and writing. Let me give you a hand.
  • A manual that's in English--but it needs to be "translated" into American English.
  • A document that isn't having the effect intended. Maybe it's the layout or the format.
  • Policies that need updating. 
​Save yourself time and aggravation. Energize the old. Get the new published.

Copyediting and Formatting

​I'll make your existing work flow, clearly and accurately.
  • Write and edit content, ensuring clarity of style, tone and voice.
  • Flag ambiguities, inaccuracies or information gaps for review or repair.
  • All that pesky punctuation! I'll set it straight.
  • Change text and headings for parallel structure.
  • Provide white space, to guide the reader and allow for better comprehension.
  • Verify captions, graphics, cross-references, and indexing.
  • Coordinate quality assurance testing of documentation.

Substantive ​Editing

I'll take apart that "fixer-upper" draft and then put it back together, only better.
  • ​Determine the project goals, recommend formats and delivery options.
  • Assess existing text. Delete what doesn’t match project goals, update what does.
  • Manipulate and relocate sections, paragraphs, and sentences.
  • Add, remove or change placement of headings.
  • Coordinate review cycles. Assess and incorporate reviewer comments.
  • Acquire illustrations and diagrams. Determine their style and placement.
