Chapter II

Editing, ghostwriting, and proofreading

Do you need help with grammar? Are you looking for the right words to make your manuscript or blog sound professional? I have a degree in publishing and have worked in newspapers and in book publishing. I know what works and what does not.

The work so far

Here are some of the kinds of things I have edited for clients:

Dissertations
Professional speeches
Academic tests
Books
Articles
Blogs
Websites

And some of the things I have written for them:

Poems
Newspaper articles
Blogs
Web copy
Emails
Promotional materials
A book

Getting a quote

Every manuscript is different, so every project is quoted on its own. Send me a note with what the work is, roughly how long it is, and when you would like it back. If you have a sample chapter or a few pages, include those too. I will read them and reply with a quote and a timeline.

The shelf

I have edited hundreds of books. These are a selection, sorted by genre. Many were published traditionally, and the rest came from independent authors. One of the non-fiction titles, American Crisis, won a 2025 Selah Award.
