Looking for some editorial assistance?
Need a new perspective on your work?
From grant writing to resume crafting, I've got you covered.
GRANT WRITING
I know all too well the tedious details that go into crafting the perfect grant proposal. Sometimes all your grant needs is a fresh perspective to make it come to life. I'm here to add that new life to your proposal and offer suggestions for your grant package. I've worked with individual clients on academic grants, as well as production companies and individuals on grants for films and other creative projects.
Grants I've worked on have received funding from the following:
COPYEDITING
Well-versed in both Chicago and AP style, I enjoy copyediting both short- and long-form content. Once your project is received, I create a style sheet tailored specifically to you. Copyediting involves fixing typos and grammar issues (omitting the passive voice, omitting unnecessary words), fact-checking names and dates, checking spelling (per Merriam-Webster), and assessing your story for sense. Any issues are then queried for your review.
EDITING
From books and short stories to articles and business writing, I can help with your editorial needs, working with you to create your best product. Editing helps ensure your writing is natural and fluent, as it examines your writing on the whole. My editing services include offering both structure and line-by-line edits and are based on our conversations and your unique needs.
PROOFREADING
Sometimes all your work needs is a bit of a polish to make it shine. Hiring a proofreader to check your text gets you the best product and ensures your text is error-free. I check for: spelling, punctuation, grammar, and typos. In addition, I proofread for consistency in both content and style. (EX: Does your character have blue eyes in chapter two but green eyes in chapter ten? Is your tense consistent throughout each section? Didn't you just use the word "great" a sentence ago?)
GHOSTWRITING
Need some help with dialogue, structure, or story? I can "ghost" your text and work with you to build out your narrative.
RESUME CRAFTING
Does your resume or cover letter lack pizzazz? Do you need some help making yourself stand out? I will review your current materials in order to highlight and emphasize your strengths, as well as suggest and help create a more eye-catching style and order of accomplishments.
