COACHING & EDITING

Looking for a professional to refine your polished draft before publication? We review your document for spelling, usage, grammar, punctuation, prepare a style guide for larger projects, and ensure consistency. We also offer, as the last stage, proofreading of the final manuscript, checking for typesetting and typographical errors.

Need help starting or developing a project? We offer encouragement and advice on the writing process and feedback on the overall content, structure, and style for a variety of genres: presentations, articles, reviews, blog posts, manuscripts.
