𝑩𝒆𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒎𝒆, 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝒂 𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖: What is that one thing you want from your editor? Editors look out for grammar, structure, style, punctuation, and so on--that's a given. But if you had to concoct everything an editor does in a phrase, what would that be? It's probably (drumroll)—produce the best possible version of the creator’s work. Creators, authors, and writers are the 𝒗𝒆𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒔 to change. Just because the noise is 𝒄𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒚, the paint is 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒏 𝒐𝒖𝒕, the engine is 𝒖𝒏𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒅, and the tires are 𝒇𝒍𝒂𝒕 (or tyres, wink)—doesn’t mean the inherent value of that vehicle is lost. 📨📭My editorial services are focused on impact-oriented message. I will see to it that your writing accomplishes EXACTLY what was intended, who it was intended for, and whether the arguments are other than logical, legible, rhetorical, or lyrical. ⚡︎Professional Highlights⚡︎ 🌟 10+ years of editing and proofreading experience with theses, business books, STEM textbooks, non-fiction books, blogs, and brand copies with 5-STAR RATINGS and EXCEPTIONAL FEEDBACK 🌟 Seasoned non-fiction/creative non-fiction expert 🌟 Worked with multi-billion dollar companies and their CEOs, FORBES writers, authors, professors, PhD students, and scholars 🌟 An stickler for accuracy and a Grammar enthusiast 🌟 Traditional Publishing Consultant: book proposals, agent letters, book editing, developmental editing, proofreading, references, and indexing. You know, academic writers sometimes get so tangled up in their complex sentences that it's like they're lost in the weeds, desperately looking for their magic wand. So, when I chat with academic writers, I typically ask them this question: Are you aiming to write just for your fellow professors to decode, or do you dream of getting your work published one day? And they get the point. So, these are the services I offer: ⛏ Copyediting: Will watch out for grammatical range and accuracy, cohesion, coherence, style guide adherence, facts, and so on, and will scrutinize for errors in style and structure ⛏ Line editing: Will charge your writing with power words, trim the fluff, correct grammar and punctuation, rephrase sentences, fill in transitions, recharge dialogues, maintain consistencies, facilitate flow, and most importantly, ensure legibility. ⛏ Developmental Editing: I will watch the comprehensive coverage of the subject: there's a lot of give-and-take involved in dev editing. First, I'll receive your manuscript either in its bud or toward maturity. All you have to do is be ready to hear the harshest criticism of your work. Just kidding! Keep an open heart to major revisions of your work, including the structure, outline, themes (if any), etc. Trust me, it's worth every bit. ⛏ Proofreading: This is the final stage. I'll read your work letter by letter, word by word, and sentence by sentence (word by word is fine :-D) for any crept-in errors. ⛏ Reference Style: For academic papers, I'll fix any style inconsistencies and update them. I'm familiar with APA (7th Ed.), MLA (8th/9th Ed.), Chicago Manual of Style (17th Ed.), Harvard Style, New Hart's (Oxford; 2014, 2nd Ed.), AP style (2019) guides, and American Sociological Association (ASA). ⛏ Traditional Publishing Assistance: A growing number of writers are self-publishing these days, though it's something many in the industry dread. It gives you all the leverage over your book's finance, marketing, and distribution. However, you can always stay off the hassles of self-publishing. Why not pitch your idea to an agent? 💌 All it takes is a query letter, right? ☢️ Not exactly. Traditional publishing is an arduous route, and only the right advice and tons of patience will take you through it. I can help edit your book in its preliminary round so you can shine in the eyes of the acquisitions editor. Also, I can assist you in crafting agent letters and book proposals, catching up, bargaining, and striking the deal. SOUNDS LIKE A FIT? Tell me more, invite me to a job, or simply shoot me a message. See you on the other side. 🌟TESTIMONIAL ALERT🌟 ⚡︎A University Professor: "Umesh is an excellent copyeditor. I've worked with several freelance copyeditors before. I'm not a terrible writer--previous copyeditors found errors, of course, but they tended to be basic things, mainly things I could have caught myself if I read the manuscript carefully. In contrast, Umesh is a professional copyeditor. He found mistakes I definitely wouldn't have found, . . .did not know were mistakes. [...] He also happens to be familiar with different writing and citation styles." ⚡︎A multi-billion-dollar company's CEO: "I recommend Umesh's service to everyone, especially the ones who only trust native editors."

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.

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!

Decades of experience and hard-won lessons often live only in memory—until they're lost. Perhaps that's why you've been thinking about writing yours down. I help families, survivors, and legacy builders transform lived stories into memoirs. Over the years, I've collaborated with people who've experienced sacrifice, adversity, growth, personal development, family legacy, and wisdom. I've also ghostwritten/edited more than 65 non-fiction books (live on Amazon) and earned Top Rated status on Upwork. Most of my clients have carried the idea for years. They've raised families, lived through soul-crushing ordeals, built businesses, led people, overcome challenges, and learned lessons that shaped who they became. They simply needed a way to turn "someday" into a finished book. Take Shelly, for example. She was going through a devasting divorce. "He was the love of my life, my Prince Charming," she says. She turned to writing as a way to deal with her trauma, hoping to share her story with someone who needs to see the light at the end of the tunnel. She brought me in to make sure her story was in professional, caring hands. These are her words: "𝑴𝒚 𝒎𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒊𝒓 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑰'𝒅 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒏 ... 𝒑𝒖𝒕𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒎𝒚 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒂𝒈𝒆. 𝑨𝒅𝒊𝒍 𝒘𝒂𝒍𝒌𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒑𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝐁𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐦 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒎𝒆. 𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝑰 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒐𝒐 𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒂 𝒔𝒄𝒆𝒏𝒆'𝒔 𝒗𝒐𝒊𝒄𝒆, 𝒉𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒅 𝒊𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒔𝒖𝒄𝒉 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒍 𝑰 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒑 𝒊𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆... .. 𝑰 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒘 𝒂𝒔 𝒂 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒉𝒊𝒎." The challenge for people like Shelly and my other clients was transforming years of memories, lessons, and experiences into a book that's worthy of them. That's where I came in. So, if you're ready to turn your "someday" into a finished book, I'd love to hear your story. Send me a message, and let's explore what it could become. (You can check out what authors felt about working with me under project reviews.)
