Words are fickle, aren't they? On the one hand, they tend to play nicely when we try to spell, pronounce, and define them. On the other hand, when we combine them to tell compelling stories or explore a fascinating subject, words often betray us.

As your editor, I’ll preserve the heart of your message while corralling and clarifying your words in a way that showcases your unique brilliance, perspective, and creativity, just as you intended. Let’s get to work.
