Edit Guru
I copyedited books and academic articles for SAGE and Wiley for 20 years. I’m proficient in Chicago and APA styles. For the last four years I have worked independently, doing developmental editing, copyediting, and proofreading of fiction and nonfiction. I bring a unique combination of study of both science and the arts to help books stand out and be accurate. I have a wide background in art, music, and wildlife biology, which allows me to comprehend and improve on a wide range of subjects. I love bringing out clarity from confusing or muddled sentences.
I am cursed with noticing everything! The details won’t leave me alone! I will find your hidden errors, your overrepeated ideas, your bits of flotsam that get in the way of lucid thought. I will leave only clear prose, easily read and understood, in your unique voice, to be embraced by millions of grateful readers.
I value working with integrity and honesty and will not leave a sentence unless I am happy with it.
