Lightning-Fast Copyeditor/Copywriter

Specialties: 

        Copyediting:  book manuscripts (genres from business to novels, memoirs, spirituality, fantasy) , magazine articles, website copy, blog posts, promotional material -- email blasts, brochures, newsletters.

        Copywriting:  website text (from scratch, or enliven existing copy), blog posts, profiles and feature stories for magazines, back jacket text and author bios for books, company success stories, company backgrounders, promotional material -- email blasts, brochures, newsletters.

       Interviewing subjects for the promotional projects I write, and computer research are two other specialties.  Also, I am comfortable working with clients whose second language is English.

      When I work with authors, I strive to keep their authentic voice, which is very important to them.  I am a "quick study," and I come up with imaginative ideas for contributing to projects.

      I am easy to work with, and am always available to have back-and-forth sessions (phone, computer, in-person) with clients regarding any questions that might arise about the projects.
