I bring a wealth of experience to my work as an editor and writer, including a Master’s degree in English Literature, numerous professional development workshops and seminars, a lot of reading, and an informed perspective that respects the need for intelligent portrayals of ideas and identities. My
foremost aim in editing — whether for fiction, non-fiction, academic
works or technical writing — is clarity, while staying true to the
original voice of the writer.

Writing is such a solitary career that any feedback is most welcome. Yours was wonderful and much appreciated. It's very rare to see gender, disability issues, education and employment dealt with in such a clear and concise manner. You have presented a difficult topic in a sensitive and moving way. |
