Writing and Editing

I provide copyediting and proofreading services for all types of documents.

I am experienced in a broad range of subject matter and genres including technical writing and editing for social sciences, scientific research, government documentation, travel writing, creative writing, essays, creative non-fiction, poetry, news reporting, copywriting, memos, grant- and proposal writing, and scholarly/academic texts. I am familiar with Chicago Style Manual, APA, AP, and MLA.

I have researched and written on many subjects for newspaper and magazine articles, such as community development, environmental issues and community quality of life issues, land use and public land use and recreation, timber economies and tourism, and Chinese internal martial arts. Writing for video has been a more recent endeavor.

I have worked with several non-native English speakers in producing scientific research results and findings for publication in peer-reviewed journals. Most are chemists, mathematicians, and atmospheric scientists from China, Japan, India, Thailand, Israel, as well as the United States and parts of Europe. If you are a researcher, or a graduate or post-doctoral student writing a thesis or dissertation I can help you improve your English writing, thus making your papers more marketable and more effective in contributing to your field of study.

Most recently, I have been involved in writing about taijiquan, or tai chi, and gigong as a practictioner of Chinese internal martial arts for about 10 years. I've also been producing martial arts instructional videos. If you are also writing about martial arts, email me to help you develop a stronger product. As your editor, I know I can.
