When the ground is dusted with snow—which causes nearly universal power outages and business closings where I live—I enjoy curling up by the fire with a mug of spiced hot chocolate to drink and a grammar handbook to read.

Yep. A grammar handbook.

Hey, at least I'm aware that I'm weird. You know that saying, "Can't see the forest for the trees"? That's me. Except even when eyeing trees, I've been known to trip over the tree stumps. I'm not even ADD.

This detail orientation serves me well when I play with words. (Or when I play Mastermind or Nertz, for that matter, but that's neither here nor there.) I started freelance writing and editing more than 6 years ago.

• Do you need web writing that adheres to the Chicago Manual of Style or The AP Stylebook (or some combination of the two)? I'm a web writer.
• Do you have text that needs to a final check for errors before you submit it? I'm a proofreader and copyeditor.
• Do you struggle to apply basic grammar rules to your own writing? I'm a grammar tutor.

That's right. I offer all those services.

That's not all I can do for you, either. I also write blog posts, perform keyword research, and more! Feel free to ask me about your project.

Clients love my:

• quality.
• timeliness.
• communication.
• personality.

I look forward to hearing from you!
