Certified copyeditor and proofreader with over forty years of writing and editing expereince My strength is in knowing how important it is to write and edit your work to tell your story with simplicity. My approach to writing and editing is simple. Writing must tell who you are, make what you write define who you are and how your writing will affect other people. Editing must let every word have strength, let it mean what it says, and make it simple; with simplicity, everything in important.
