    Hi. I'm back on the site after taking an extended break to prepare to sell my house, which I successfully did! Now I'm back on to help with your editing needs. After 35-plus years as a journalist, most at USA TODAY, for the past six years I was the editor at the nonprofit Tax Foundation in downtown Washington, D.C., transforming the accuracy and style of their publications and donor correspondence and vastly improving the delivery time of the written materials from the economists and analysts. I have my own business of editing/copy editing/proofreading of nonfiction, fiction, document proposals, news releases, etc., anything that needs another set of eyes to review. Much of my work comes from freelance editing for Post Hill Press publishers out of New York City. That's why I don't have as many hours as some who are on the UPWORK platform. I am a native Washingtonian with a keen interest in politics, government, media and sports. I also hold a Master’s degree in Public Affairs Journalism from The American University, where I taught journalism. I am a reliable self-starter, high energy person, innovative thinker and problem solver with the ability to listen, assess and quickly respond and react. I almost always can return your document within a week, and more often than not, in just a few days.

    Working on a book and need a ghostwriter, editor, or proofreader? Have an idea for a writing project and need someone to turn that idea into a completed project? Need short copy for your blog or website that is concise, clear, and engaging? If so, you've come to the right place! I am a CREATIVE PASSIONISTA: author, editor, educator, and writing coach. I am an author of fiction (mysteries, women's, romance) and non-fiction (flash memoir, works on writing craft, academic). I am an editor, having edited 100s of projects in the last 17 years. Genres I have edited and proofread include fiction (fantasy, romance, mystery, thriller, sci-fi, literary, women's fiction, Christian, urban), non-fiction (faith-based, self-help), poetry, and academic works (theses, dissertations, articles for publication). I am an educator, having taught English and mass communication courses in a university setting for 16 years and teaching online courses on creative writing. I am a writing coach, helping writers to hone their craft from idea to development of project. My specialties include academic writing, creative writing, editing, proofreading, manuscript evaluation, researching, teaching of composition and mass communication courses. ******* What a few clients have said about my work... Shonell provides expert editing services that can take any book to the next level. I have always left inspired and seeing my written words in a refreshed way. She is personable and pays attention to those little details. Shonell met my expectations (they are usually ridiculously high). I have used her services more than once and have never regretted it. I look forward to her being a part of my growing team. -Maryann Reid, Digital Consultant, Startup Advisor Shonell was hired to proofread my manuscript, and she went above and beyond the call of duty! She gave me a detailed critique of my work and made my manuscript shine. -Julia Press Simmons, Owner of Queen Midas Books Shonell provided an unorthodox service on a writing project of mine. She was professional, punctual, gracious and showed her competency. The service was editing in nature. I would use or recommend her in this capacity at any time, to anyone. -Brad Dickey *******
