BUSINESS ☽ CREATIVE ☾ ACADEMIC ► Content editing — big picture attention to style, structure, and story-telling elements. ► Line editing — focused attention to word choice, clarity, pacing, and flow. ► Proofreading — ensuring flawless punctuation and grammar, and that your final product is properly formatted and free from typos. If you need a second pair of eyes (and let's be honest—who doesn't?), I'm here to help. Whether your project is business or personal, academic or non-academic, fiction or non-fiction, I will improve its readability while maintaining your original voice and intent. My background is in academia (PhD, Political Theory, 2018), and I have 15+ years of highly varied professional experience as an editor. Past projects I've been hired for include novels, memoirs, short stories, children’s books, website copy, journal articles, marketing materials, textbooks, financial literacy blogs, and a series of books on personal wellness, just to name a few. ————— I am available to those who need a quick turnaround on a single project, as well as to those who are interested in building a long-term relationship with an editor who they can trust. I also have experience helping independent authors self-publish through Kindle Direct Publishing (which distributes e-books, paperbacks, and hard covers). If you want, I can see your manuscript through all aspects of the formatting and uploading process.

Experience in journalism + special education isn't as divergent as it sounds. It makes for a unique set of skills that are ideal for projects requiring a high level of attention to detail and strong written communication. So what's that mean? *As someone with freelance writing experience, I'm well aware that I may need to mold my voice to fit a project. I can do that. I've written nonfiction articles across the genres, but with a particular emphasis on health, tourism, marketing, local politics, education, and the occasional dog wedding. *As someone with a growing portfolio of copywriting experience, particularly in the niche areas of B2B, tourism, marketing, real estate and health/wellness, I'm ready to not only fit my writing to the tone of your business, but create copy that is easy-to-read, SEO-friendly, and optimized for the web. *As someone with teaching experience, particularly in the field of special education, I have patience for days, and an attention to detail unparalleled by those who have never worked in fields where there's a constant fear of being sued. *As someone with staff writing and editing experience, I thrive on deadlines, while still maintaining a high level of professionalism and accuracy. *And, as a lover of words and all things grammar, I take great pride in making a piece of work the best it can be, whether that's my own or a client's. This is all very intriguing, right? By the way, if you're looking for a lighter touch, I'm also the creator of a humor and travel blog of my own. This may not mean much to you, but it has forced me to become well-versed in SEO strategies and the idea of marketing myself as a brand, two areas I'm happy to provide support in as well. If you feel like I'm a good fit for your project, message me!

I’m a detail-oriented perfectionist with a passion for language, which makes me the ideal copy editor or proofreader for your magazine/resume/website/pizza menu. I have a BFA in creative writing with a focus on poetry, so I know words matter, and whether I'm writing or editing, I bring that care and dedication to every project. Pro-oxford comma, but if that’s not your style we can still make it work! I’m flexible enough to have thrived in work environments as varied as a hotel kitchen and a theater tech booth, and while most of my editing experience is in Chicago Style, I’ve worked with a variety of style guides, and even created a house style guide for internal and audience-facing documents. I was raised in Scotland and now live in the United States; my fluency in both British and American English is an asset if you're working on both sides of the pond. I have five years of editing and proofreading experience, including literary magazines, interview transcripts, and image captions, and I'm comfortable working with Microsoft Office and Adobe Suite.

I believe the role of an editor is to help writers express themselves as clearly and eloquently as possible. This calls for honesty, sensitivity, excellent communication, a collaborative mindset, and an obsessive attention to detail, all traits I strive to embody every day. Hopefully, my 100% job success score will tell you how my past & current clients have felt about their experience with me. Many have even included me in their Acknowledgments, which is always deeply gratifying. For example, one author wrote: “My sincere thanks to my editor, Lisa Messinger, who turned this from a rough manuscript with lots of sharp edges, into a smooth, polished work.” As the saying goes, variety is the spice of life, and for me this holds true in editing as well. I love learning new things from the wide range of material on which I work. I'm happy to edit most types of content, and am always looking to forge long-term relationships, though my primary focus is manuscripts. I have years of experience with the following: *Fiction (most sub-genres, and every length, from short stories to novellas to full-length novels): adult, YA, middle grade *Non-fiction: memoir, historical, self-help/personal development, marketing collateral, white papers, consultant reports, etc. I'm passionate about what I do, and consider it a privilege to be able to employ my skills and expertise to help writers bring their vision to life. You can trust that I'll be as invested as you are in the quality of your final draft. Reach out to me and let's get started! I look forward to working with you.

I love to read, write and experiment with various modes of expression. I have written thousands of pieces – news articles, opinion pieces, fiction, academic papers, consulting reports, expert opinions, correspondence … even a Ph.D. dissertation. When writing, my goal is to organize and deliver information to my target audience as effectively as possible. In this day of acronyms and emojis, writers tend to avoid lengthy, meandering pieces. Instead, they focus on how to convey dominant emotions and messages in the shortest possible time. I get that! But the fact of the matter is that I appreciate and savor – literally revere – the ability to use language better than most. So, even in an ever-changing world catering to people with short attention spans, I continue to search for pieces of work that uphold the finest traditions of authorship while presenting timely, cogent thoughts. I have traveled all over the world, been a successful business consultant, an economics professor, a journalist, a TV pundit and a sportsman. I absolutely love being a husband and father. But nowhere do I find more pleasure on a daily basis than in the simple pursuit of expressing myself properly, whatever the subject matter and whoever the audience.
