I am an published writer with several short stories in print and on-line publications. I have an excellent grasp of the English language, and have extensive experience writing both fiction and non-fiction. Many people have commented on my ability to make complex ideas clear, and communicate key points directly. I have a broad general knowledge, and enjoy research and coming to grips with new ideas. I have taught at the tertiary level for the last twenty-plus years, working in private providers in New Zealand and universities in China. I currently work a couple of days a week at a college attached to a university in Christchurch. For a client I can deliver writing that can be tailored to their needs, combined with an eye for detail, and a commitment to deadlines.

I'm a facilitator, a scrum master, a coach and an agile specialist with a focus on culture. I have been in the tech industry since 2006. In this time I've received excellent feedback on my coaching skills, from facilitating groups to one-on-ones. I especially love hashing out problems and helping people find direction. I'm also a self-published author. I do all my own drafting, editing and publishing, I also speak about fiction and the writing process. My work covers a range of genre including romance, horror, urban fantasy and science fiction. What do you need help with? - I'm a great active listener, if you want to talk through a problem you're having, I'd be happy to listen. I can also offer advice, or just be a sympathetic ear (the rubber duck method is incredibly powerful) - I'm have an eye for story structure, and have written in many different genre. If you want feedback on a short story, novella or novel I'd be happy to read it over and give you an editorial letter in return (rates for novels over 35k may be higher) - Do you need someone to post on your social media, encourage interaction and boost your brand? Look no further. I can do this once a week or every day, whatever suits you. I'm proficient in Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok and Facebook pages - If you need accurate and quickly delivered transcription or data entry services I can help with that too. I type fast and I have an eye for detail. If you have a job that you think I can do, please get in touch!

I've always loved language, and have had a passion for literature, and creative writing since I can remember. Currently, I am studying towards my diploma in marketing. My intent on Upwork is to write books for people who want them. If you are offering $300 or any less for a 50,000 (or more) word book, you're not paying your writers well enough. My experience stems from three years of dedicated study in my field at university level, my creative writing diploma, and my own freelance endeavours. If you're looking for someone who has a keen eye for detail, and a passion for grammar, and everything to do with language, then get in touch with me. I'm always open for new projects, and I love to explore new avenues with a creative flair.

I have been writing for 20 years and have been fortunate enough to receive publication in Takahe, Bravado, Adelaide Literary, PIF, Daily Love, Danse Macabre, Apocrypha and Abstractions, Dash, The Fictional Café, Potato Soup Journal, Fleas On The Dog, Cardinal Sins, Tiny Molecules, and Mystery Tribune. I specialize in editing fiction to maximize the readability and impact of each line, paragraph, and chapter. Your reader should want to re-read your sentences because they appreciate them - never because they need to re-read in order to follow the narrative. Writing isn't what I do, it's who I am, and therefore I am never happy until the client is happy. I will edit and re-edit until the client is satisfied. I am an accomplished writer and editor, and - as a fellow writer - I understand the excitement and stress of final edit before publication. I promise to edit your work as if it were my own and assure you that you will be consulted each and every step of the way. I work from home and therefore am available 24/7 for Skype, Zoom, Email - whatever you require, at a moment’s notice. I see UpWork as an opportunity to finance my savings throughout my life. With that in mind, my reputation and quality of work will always be my highest priority. I am not satisfied until the client is satisfied. You will, of course, be consulted as often as is needed throughout each step of the process. My favorite writer, F Scott Fitzgerald, wrote that a poorly formed sentence rang as untrue as a mistimed musical note, and will I take that as guidance during any revision process. I look forward to working with you, Jonathan Herring
