Copy Punch-Up & Short-Form Editing

You don’t need a rewrite.
You need your words to land.

This service is for writers, creators, nonprofits, small businesses, and humans with something to say—who know their message is almost there, but not quite doing the work it should.

I help your existing words sound more like you on your best day:

  • clearer

  • sharper

  • better paced

  • more confident

  • more intentional

No content mills.
No SEO soup.
No voice replacement.

Just thoughtful editorial care.

What This Is (and Isn’t)

This is:

  • tightening language

  • clarifying intent

  • improving rhythm and flow

  • cutting what doesn’t serve

  • strengthening openings and endings

  • aligning tone with audience and purpose

This is not:

  • ghostwriting from scratch

  • AI-generated filler

  • marketing copy that ignores your actual voice

If you already did the hard part—thinking, drafting, caring—this is the polish.

Who This Is For

  • Writers who want a second set of editorial eyes

  • Creators refining newsletters, Substack posts, blog entries, essays, or short fiction

  • Small businesses and nonprofits cleaning up About pages, bios, or campaign copy

  • Podcasters and speakers refining scripts, intros, or short monologues

  • Anyone who’s been staring at the same paragraph too long and needs help seeing it clearly again

How It Works

  1. You send the text and a sentence or two about what it’s for

  2. I edit directly in your document (or provide clean before/after)

  3. You receive:

    • a polished version

    • light margin notes where helpful

    • suggestions, not mandates

Turnaround is usually 2–5 business days, depending on length and complexity.

A Note on Voice

I don’t sand your work down.
I don’t make everything sound the same.
I don’t overwrite.

My job is to help your voice come through more clearly, not louder, trendier, or more “optimized.”
