A–z

I think we can agree that a wordsmith has to be attentive to nuance, approach, and substance. My work is all about listening, hearing, and perceiving. Most of all (as I know I keep harping on), it revolves around communicating — getting across what one means to say. And in an appropriate style.

For instance, if you want a biography of your CEO written for a website, I craft it according to your line of business and your potential customer base — American Apparel requiring a different framework and speech pattern than, say, General Motors. Ditto as to a piece on Stephen Hawking, depending on whether it’s written for The Royal Society or a high school textbook. Ensuring that the voice suits the audience is one of my great strengths.

No need to take my word for it. Look at a few samples of different subjects and styles and decide for yourself.
