I'm a passionate writer who thrives on turning ideas into compelling, purposeful content. I've dedicated years to studying linguistics, language, and literature to build a strong foundation that allows me to adapt to virtually any style or medium—from scriptwriting and blog writing to copywriting, storytelling, and beyond. No matter the project, my goal is the same: to give your words clarity, structure, and impact. I write with intention, crafting content that resonates with its audience, communicates its message effectively, and accomplishes exactly what it's meant to do.

I provide a wide range of writing and editing services: proofreading, copy editing, grammar and syntax review, content rewriting, line editing, and developmental editing of academic, nonfiction, financial, tax, and legal projects. I also index books, record for Radio Talking Books and record audiobooks for Audible and Librivox. Since 2020 I have edited more than a dozen nonfiction books, three book-length dissertations, more than 50 academic journal articles, numerous master’s theses and other shorter works, and several white papers. As a retired attorney, judge, and business school professor, I've applied my expertise to subjects ranging from an analysis of the UK's system of dual-class shares, to whether the legal definition of genocide should encompass political grounds, to the environmental aspects of fast fashion, and everything in between. I recently edited and indexed a book on the unique problems of employing those with criminal histories, which was published in 2024 by Springer Nature. I have also edited nearly a dozen travel and how-to books for CZYK Publishing, an independent publisher in the United States. I have extensive experience, and particular expertise, in working with clients for whom English is a second (or third) language. I edit in MS Word and return for each project a redline with my suggested edits and explanatory comments and, when appropriate, a clean copy ready for use. I have also edited in Google Docs and in Adobe. I have certificates in editing from the University of Washington and from the University of Chicago, a doctorate in accounting/business/economics from the University of Minnesota, and a law degree from the University of Michigan. I would love to speak with you about how I can help you make your writing clear, concise, and compelling. As a first step, let's schedule an interview to discuss your project!

Thanks for considering me for your project! After a highly successful career in the airline and travel/tourism businesses, I've gone solo, bringing my expertise in writing, editing, and proofreading with me. While I'm certainly experienced working in these exciting and rapidly changing industries, over the years I've broadened my knowledge by working with architects, psychologists, authors, lawyers, flight instructors, and web developers, just to name a few. It isn't surprising that your first impression with prospective customers is in all likelihood the only chance you are going to get. There are rarely second chances, so the first few sentences of what I write for my clients has to draw in customers. Whether it be a sales pitch, website copy, or marketing materials, it is my intent to connect with the reader as effectively as possible. Grammatical accuracy including spelling and punctuation are an absolute necessity. I also take pride in producing high quality SEO-optimized articles which include relevant keywords to ensure high rankings for your website or blog. If these are strengths that your project requires, then I may be the person you are looking for. For more than 25 years, my final approval was required on literally hundreds (okay, thousands), of brochures, catalogs, marketing emails, web pages, press releases, vital company correspondence, and anything else that a wholesale travel company produces. My attention to detail was well known by my employers and co-workers, as well as my insistence that nothing grammatically incorrect leave the office. If you are looking to expand your audience or perhaps reach a more select group of readers, I will tailor my work to meet your company's needs. The end result will be clear and succinct to engage readers, and a finished product that produces positive results. Lastly, I complete every job on schedule, and on budget. I'm efficient, encourage constructive criticism, and am priced competitively. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Marc
