Often, small vocabulary changes can subtly affect how your words are perceived. My goal is to help you convey your ideas clearly and effectively, whether a short story, novel, thesis, post-graduate or grant application–even a letter to a valued American friend.
Please note that my services do not include translations or review for submissions according to specific journal guidelines or citation styles. You should have a working knowledge of English, and by meeting together we will forge an understanding of how you want to creatively communicate your work in precise American English.
I have assisted many non-native writers successfully achieve their goals with work that includes long and short fiction pieces, grant applications, journal submissions, memoirs, and museum catalogs. My personal attention and background as a native English speaker with an MFA in Creative Writing can help you achieve your goals, too.
