Editing

Editing improves flow, clarity, concision, correctness, and consistency. It ensures that your written words say what you mean in a clear and engaging way.

Proofreading

Proofreading corrects errors in spelling, punctuation, grammar, capitalization, links/references, formatting, and more. It puts the final polish on your document.

Fact-Checking

Fact-checking verifies information—names and titles, dates, places, statistics, claims, and images. You choose the level you’re looking for.

Animals & Animal Care

I have a deep and abiding interest in animals—companion animals, working animals, livestock, and wildlife. I edit care manuals, adventure stories, educational materials, and science news. Animals are regarded in many different and valid ways in the world, and I look forward to helping you share what you know.

Regenerative Growing

Plants sustain us in many ways. As a lifelong gardener and decade-long student of regenerative growing and composting, I am committed to helping you share knowledge and news about plants, microorganisms, and soil ecosystems.

Caregiving

A lot of caregiving happens in the world every day, and with it comes a need for training materials, guidelines, reports, documentation, and stories and reflection. With a background in public education and at-home caregiving, I am ready to support your production of written resources for caregivers and care recipients of all ages.

“I was on the fence at first about getting this edited, but after seeing all of your feedback, I believe it was money well spent. I’d be happy to use your services again in the future.”
