Helping writers communicate their ideas clearly

Subject matter experts are knowledgeable about their subjects and passionate about their ideas, but sometimes have trouble seeing things that can trip up readers who are not as well-versed in the field as the writer. Partnering with a language and style expert can help you bridge that gap.

​I bring a fresh pair of eyes to your work, informed by my professional training and experience, to identify and remove obstacles to readers’ understanding so your ideas can shine through.

​Whether you need assistance with spelling and grammar, clarity and consistency, technical details such as formatting of tables and references, a final proofreading pass, or all of these, I can help.

Types of writing I work with:

• nonfiction books on a wide range of subjects, including
  • education and parenting
  • food and cooking
  • health and fitness
  • business and entrepreneurship
  • technical topics
  • how-to and self-help books
  • Christian nonfiction
• business and technical documents and presentations
• academic papers – theses, dissertations, and journal articles

Services I offer:

• proofreading
• typesetting / book layout using Vellum
• citations and references
• academic paper formatting
