Writing

Do you have lots of great ideas but find it hard to commit pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard)? If so, you're in good company. Thomas Mann said that a writer is someone who finds writing difficult.

Sometimes you might not have the time, energy or inspiration to do your ideas justice. This is where I can help. Whether you're writing a 300-page book or a 500-word article, I can help steer those words into sentences and paragraphs into pages.

  • My services include research, interviews, writing, editing and preparing for publication.

    I can write for a wide range of publications and audiences. To get an idea of my voice and style, check out my poetry and field notes pages.

  • I offer competitive prices and am happy to negotiate reduced rates for students and community & not-for-profit groups. Contact me today to discuss your project and how I can help.

 

Editing

Love writing but hate editing? Need a second pair of eyes on your manuscript before submission? Got a deadline and you need someone to dot the i's and cross the t's? I can help.

I have over 20 years of experience editing fiction, non-fiction, poetry, academic writing, business writing, website copy and educational materials for a variety of publications and audiences.

  • My services include structural editing, copy-editing, proofreading, referencing, indexing and fact-checking.

  • I offer competitive prices and am happy to negotiate reduced rates for students and community & not-for-profit groups. Contact me today to discuss your project and how I can help.

I’m happy to write about almost any topic or subject, however, if your project relates to mental health, nature and environment, poetry and literature, work and culture, or social, urban and cultural history, these are my passions—so please get in touch!
