Images give breadth, context, and resonance to a message; communication is most effective when content and presentation, substance and form work together.

I design and develop custom websites that are beautiful, feature-rich, typographically persnickity, database-driven, and responsive.

I also do graphic and print design such as books and book covers, cards and identity pieces, brochures and ads. The creation of e-books is a new element in this print-web fusion.

My editorial work ranges from the light, disciplined touch of a copyedit to substantive and developmental editing. I work with both publishers/presses and individual writers.

The level of editing follows the client’s expressed needs and wishes. I have been told I have a particular talent for preserving the client’s unique voice.

I also write, developing custom content to a client’s specifications.

Surprisingly often, these services grow together.

For an editing client, I also designed and laid out a book, taking it from rough draft to delivered copies. (And two years later, converted it into an ebook.)

For a website client, I also took photos and videos to document her work, and later designed the cover for her music CD.

I can coach a client in developing a content strategy for a website, or fine-tune the verbal content of a site, or develop new content for key pages.
