About
- My service is your message.What does "Stet" mean?It's an editing term, meaning "disregard that change I made." It's also Latin for "let it stand," which is precisely what I mean to do as your editor.These days, we’re always writing something. A memo, a tweet, a text, a dissertation. And let’s face it, we’re not all writers. That’s okay! We’re all gifted in different ways.
You have something important to say. It’s my job to help you get your message across clearly. I don’t mess around with business-speak or jargon. I also won’t suck your voice out of what you wrote (I'll let it stand).
I’m at the very least another pair of eyes, and at the very most, another keyboard.
