Not sure what you need?

That’s fine. (In fact, that’s normal.) Many editorial categories overlap, and professional jargon doesn’t always coincide with common sense! Send me a quick note, and we can start the conversation. I’m always happy to provide references, a sample edit, or a consultation. No charge, no obligation.
