Writing and Rewriting. From comprehensive training manuals to quick reference cards, FAQs, and Web content, I can help you provide content that your customers want.

Editing. As an editor, my job is to catch costly, embarrassing mistakes. My editing service is called "copyediting" and is often labeled a "medium edit." When I copyedit, I read your document line by line to eliminate errors in punctuation, spelling, and grammar; establish consistent styles with capitalization, numbers, and headings; clarify language by improving word usage, sentences, and paragraphs; verify callouts, captions, and references; and review indexes and keywords.

Style Guides. The style guides I use to perform a copyedit include your house style and "The Chicago Manual of Style," "Microsoft Manual of Style for Technical Publications," "Read Me First: A Style Guide for the Computer Industry," and "The Associated Press Stylebook and Briefing on Media Law."

Design. I use software from Adobe and Microsoft to create effective, simple, and low-cost designs that complement your words. The software I use includes Acrobat, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop; Word, Excel, PowerPoint; HTML/XHTML, and CSS.
