Welcome!
What can I do for you?
Edit or copyedit something? Perhaps, a simple proofread? Need copy - web content, articles, press releases, brochures? Maybe you’ve started something and the job is just too daunting for you alone.
Writers of all shoe sizes can overlook those pesky writing problems that can make a beautifully written piece of copy into a study of chaos. Fresh eyes, trained eyes, are essential for that perfect gleaming gem of copy you have created.
Depending on the kind of service you require, your work will be diligently checked for typographical errors, grammar, spelling, punctuation, verb tense, phrasing, word choice, smooth transitioning, clarity, concision, sentence structure, readability, and flow.
If you need something written, I have ample experience with web content, articles, press releases, newspapers, brochures, catalogs, essays, papers, and even the fun stuff like short stories, novels, memoirs, and the like.
My services are thorough and detailed. If you have a writing project that needs attention, look no further. My rates are reasonable and you’ll be ecstatic with the results. For more details, visit the Services page.
There are posts about issues with grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Gander in the Garden for little grammar tidbits. For those annoying spelling conundrums, the Swamp bubbles over with helpful hints. Slide into the Playground for help with the mechanics of writing. We can’t remember it all - well, maybe a few paradoxes of nature can - but the rest of us need a little help every so often.
Feel free to drop into Trade Talk - it’s just a little writing blog where I talk about everything from grammar stuff to web content dilemmas to internet observations. Anything related to why’s that, where’s it, who’s it, what’s dat, and how’s it going.
For the personal stuff, visit my blog that I putter around in from my very odd little planet - Shawniverse.
Or leave a comment about your project (it won’t get posted). Give me a brief description of what your needs are, what I can do for you, and how soon you need it. I’ll get back to you within one business day. Promise!
Testimonials
“Your comments, ideas, and editing of my book helped me see both the simple and critical mistakes I had made. In turn, I revised the entire story to make it more clean and flowing, and learned how to be a better writer.
It was comforting to be ‘coached’ through my first novella. Thanks! –Paula
Thanks for reviewing my hastily-written monster of an eight-page paper. Your comments were really helpful and you picked up on all the details I’d probably have overlooked before sending it on to my higher-ups! … It was exactly what I needed. How did I get lucky enough to stumble on your services just when I needed them?” –Lisa H.
