Wryly Edits is more than just a clever name — it’s a reflection of how I work: with precision, personality, and a joyful infatuation with the written word. With decades of experience editing everything from books to academic papers, speeches to policies, I bring a sharp eye and a thoughtful, creative approach to every project.

I’m relentless when it comes to good writing — the kind that has purpose, tells a story, and makes you feel something. From the words themselves, to how they’re laid out on the page, every element matters. That’s my thing.

My credentials? Sure, I’ve got the degrees. But what really shaped me was growing up in a household captivated by words. My father’s motto was always: “Look it up!” A neighbor once observed that my family’s favorite sport seemed to be a kind of verbal volleyball — full of puns, poetry, debates, and lovingly savage grammar wars. 

That early word-nerd training turned into a genuine (and more socially acceptable) superpower — helping people sharpen their writing until it’s polished, clear, and compelling. Whether you’re working on a book, a policy manual, or your website, I’m here to make your message wryly unforgettable.

I’m a little out there, laser-focused, and genuinely hooked on helping people say exactly what they mean — just better. Whether it’s a dissertation that needs polishing, a short story looking for flow, or a corporate manual that needs clarity, I’m here to help make your writing sing.
