The Path

my twofold mission:

  • To provide you with thorough, incisive, individualized editorial services which help your words resonate deeply and clearly.

  • To deliver intuitive insights into the “you” found in your work, so as to empower you to more richly encounter readers as well as yourself, creatively and in life.

guiding principles:

A Journey of Refinement: Your Manuscript

Good editorial feedback highlights your work's greatest strengths, identifies crucial areas for development, and suggests routes toward improvement. It goes without saying that a good editor also lends you the benefit of their fanatical attention to detail, so as to greatly reduce the chances of unintended distraction or misdirection in your manuscript.

A Journey of Connection: Your Audience

You know you are getting quality editorial assistance when the editor has a firm grasp not only on what you are trying to communicate but on how audiences may receive it (and how you want them to receive it). That highly-anticipated moment when writer and reader meet on the bridge of creative labor is ultimately ungovernable, but in spite of this and even because of this, your best editor will engage you in provocative dialogue on that crucial future meeting. My editorial process strives to help you deepen your awareness of and writerly approach to communication.

A Journey of Dependability: Your Editor

An editor ought to have respect and enthusiasm for the sheer verve and conviction of your endeavor. Your interactions with your editor ought to be attuned to your needs, have clearly defined and benchmarked objectives, and be reliably executed. As your creative fellow traveler, I desire to deliver to you a professional editorial support experience nonpareil.

A Journey of Discovery: You

A good editorial experience is a growth experience for the creator. Creation is also exploration; it is rarely just about the writing. The right editor for you inspires you to dive deeper into yourself and the world around you. My foremost desire is to inspire you to excel in your craft, but I also aspire to help you more fully encounter yourself as an artist and a human being.
