I edit pieces of all types - even atrociously written pieces - to create informative and understandable writing. I have experience editing both fiction and non-fiction pieces, and I am able to spot grammatical mistakes quickly. I have nine months of experience editing magazine articles and books for print, as well as other miscellaneous experience editing papers, stories, books and other written material.I posess the ability to understand the ideas the writer is attempting to put forth and reword the material so it is easily understood and concise. I am also able to rewrite while maintaining the style of the original author. My strength is being able to understand what the writer is attempting to say and restate it in a concise and clear manner. I am also able to spot grammatical and spelling errors quickly.
