Let's write!

You trust me with your work; I explain, encourage, and make it exemplary.

My Story

    I love literature.  All kinds.  From Amelia Bedelia to Zora Neale Hurston.  Well, maybe not all kinds, but a vast majority of them.  I love to read for learning, enjoyment, adventure, and self-improvement.  I've been an educator for nearly twenty years, focusing on reading and literature (obviously), and have recently earned a copyediting certification.  I am passionate about grammar, writing elements, and punctuation (I get weak in the knees at the use of the Oxford comma).  I am a grammar nerd.  So how does this help you?

    I am currently a freelance copyeditor (what most people think proofreading is), and I'm ready to help you with your writing.  Whether a high school student struggling through college and scholarship application papers, a budding author, or an established writer, I give a professional perspective on your work.  I preserve your voice while making your thoughts clear, concise, and expressive.  My years of working with students on their own writings has taught me how to explain with patience, correct with encouragement, and still allow your work to be just that - your best work.  Contact me today to see what I can do for you!
