“Maria Boers Morris tackled my madness and made me more accessible. Her editing brought out a more powerful magic than I could have on my own. Furthermore, having worked now with 4 professional editors... Maria brought out the best in me. Hire her if she is available. Email me for a specific reference if I may help. Sincerely. "
~Ben Mack, author Think Two Products Ahead. 26 October 2007

 

 

 

 

 

Work Towards Your Passion.
Giving Freedom to Great Stories...and papers, and presentations.

Courage, Bravery, Strength… in editing?

If you want excellence for your novel, thesis, presentation, or dissertation, wouldn’t you want your editor to have those three things along with experience and skill?  I love “story” from fiction to anything as prosaic as a security assessment, or a sociological paper on ambivalence.  I care deeply that the information is clear and accessible to your reader or audience.

I do line, or copy editing, and substantive editing.  I can help with early stages of a dissertation, by doing the transcriptions for qualitative interviews, and bring Power Point presentations into clarity through formatting of its visual presentation.  For clients un-used to computers or submission requirements of publishers, I can help prepare manuscripts for consideration.   

I have been fortunate in having interesting work, and returning clients.  I am willing to negotiate terms, using my current fee structure as my baseline.  If there is a way I can help move your presentation, manuscript, dissertation towards excellence in clarity and accessibility, I offer my skills, my experience and, yes, my passion for this job.

"Honest criticism means nothing:
what one wants is unrestrained passion,
fire for fire."
Henry Miller
