Editorial Services

Are you a press, academic, or indie author seeking:

  • clear, professional copy free of errors,

  • technical prose edited accurately,

  • literary prose edited with care,

  • consistent citations and references in any style, and

  • line edits to improve clarity, style, concision, and flow. 

I am well versed in Chicago, APA, CSE, and MLA.

“I want to emphasize my thanks for your work—you've made the writing immeasurably better, but also really importantly pointed out where I'm not being clear in my concepts and arguments, etc. Thank you!”

JC, Historian

As an editor I am careful with technical content whether you’re writing about quasars or knitting patterns. My style is to be straightforward and supportive. I’m in this business because no one makes a living as a poet I love helping people get words on the page and become better writers.

Ellen Goldstein

“Ellen truly listens to my concerns about my writing and helps address them. I feel I’ve become a stronger writer over time from working with her—her constructive comments and attention to detail are invaluable, and I always leave with ideas for how I can improve my writing going forward. Not only is Ellen knowledgeable about writing, her encouragement, advice, and sense of humor make her a joy to work with."

Kimberly, writer and editor
