I will help your finish your manuscript, essay, or article so that it is clear, on point, cliché-free, and effective.

Hello! I'm Josh.

I'm a graduate of New York University with a degree in English literature and philosophy. I have been editing books for over 5 years now, first with Random House and Vintage/Knopf publishers, and then with my own small press and literary website.

I also have experience blog and article writing as well as copywriting for products.

Nothing makes me happier than taking an unfinished work, be it academic, scientific, philosophical, literary, non-fiction, poetic, experimental, or journalistic, and working with the author so it can reach it's potential.

I have a knack for weeding out cliché phrasing, redundancies, logical fallacies, and inconsistencies. I know that words can change the world and I'd love to help you do that.

Get in touch if you have any questions!

Unless it is a short piece, I prefer to use Google Docs for editing. I will convert the file and send you a link. That way you are able to (1) track my progress in realtime and (2) discuss revisions or questions with me in an organized manner.
