    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.

    A good editor teases out the key messages while holding onto the writer’s voice. If you have something to say - or just have to say something - I can help. My skills were forged from twelve years as an advertising copywriter, business journalist and editor at a think tank. In thousands of published articles, I’ve simplified and explained all types of reports, papers and documents. If it was dry, I made it sound sexy. If it was already sexy, I added intrigue. What sets me apart is my experience creating those complex reports you see discussed in newspapers. I actually got journalists interested in economics. Not an easy task, let me tell you! I know the power of clear writing and telling a fun story. Writing is clear when a stranger in a loud, crowded bar can understand the sentence. That’s my goal. So, what story do you want to tell?

    I remember the exact moment it happened. Sitting on my Dad’s knee, age five, watching an All Blacks match… That’s when I knew I was in love with sports. Fast forward 30 years, and now I’m a specialist sports writer. With more than a decade’s experience producing high quality content about the subject I love, I live and breathe the following sports: • Rugby • Tennis • Cricket • MMA • Poker • Boxing Over the past 13 years, I’ve collaborated with dozens of businesses to write millions of words. From working with big corporates like Deloitte and Vodafone, through to ghostwriting for industry leaders and being published in over 300 websites and magazines, I've done the lot. Specifically, you can find my recent sports writing on iGaming websites such as: • TennisMajors.com • MrFixitsTips.co.uk • NYFights.com • BetZillion.com • Bookmaker-Info.com • UTS.com • MyBettingAustralia.com But there’s one thing missing from this list… YOU! Choose to work with me, and I can guarantee: • Excellence in execution and service • Genuine passion and depth of knowledge in my sporting niches • Humility and a continual desire to learn Flick me a message today, and let’s get talking about sports.

    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

    I am: - A native English speaker - A qualified freelance editor and proofreader (DipEdit) - Friendly and flexible to my client's needs - Competitively priced in my first year on Upwork (I can also charge per word) - Medically fluent (previous career of 24 years in the medical field) - 56 years old with a healthy sense of humour - Able to add fact-checking, plagiarism and AI detection to any project I work with: - All global English variations - All styles and style guides - Mainly nonfiction projects of diverse types and sizes - Clients with English as their second language (ESL) I have previous editing experience with: - Historical books - Business websites - Medical reports - Newsletters - Advertising - Clients with English as their second language (ESL) - 1 poem :) I am looking for nonfiction content including: - Historical - Medical - Advertising, including product descriptions or instruction manuals - Educational - Biographical, autobiographies and memoirs - Business and technical content, including documents and newsletters - Essays - Scientific and technical - Travel literature - True crime or news - Comedy and many more NOTE: It's a fact that the human touch goes beyond AI's capabilities. Editing AI is only as good as the human using it. The more I use Grammarly, the more I discover its many limitations, such as its inability to capture context-specific errors and misused words or provide feedback on the overall coherence, structure, rhythm or voice of the writing. Those sneaky, easily missed, misused words and phrases are pretty funny sometimes!
