Content Portfolio, Philosophy, and Praise

Collaborating with you to plan and bring to life new projects. This can look like:

• Discussing goals, vision, format, timing, and more for new projects

• Brainstorming, whether with you or on my own, an outline

• Brainstorming, whether with you or on my own, detailed notes for each part of the outline

• Pulling together existing materials to fill in the outline (like blog posts, Instagram posts, notes you’ve written, etc.) and then making note of areas where new material is needed

• Us deciding together how the writing and editing get done (can be any combination of you and me working on each of these pieces)

Turning your scattered notes and ideas into something that feels cohesive. This can look like:

• Reviewing notes you’ve written down (this can include diagrams, scribbled post-its, and more!)

• A call where we discuss any notes you sent over, along with all the ideas on your mind, during which I take extensive notes

• Pulling together all your ideas into an outline, flow, or format that we then discuss

• Us deciding together how the writing and editing get done (can be any combination of you and me working on each of these pieces)

Creating something from existing materials. This can look like:

• Pulling together existing materials (blog posts, Instagram posts, notes you’ve written, etc.)

• Organizing existing materials into a suggested flow, format, or outline that we then discuss

• Editing existing materials for clarity, flow, and completeness, suggesting areas for you to fill in or expand upon

Editing what you’ve already written so it feels like you and says what you’ve been trying to say. This can look like:

• A meeting to make sure we’re on the same page and I understand what you’re looking for

• Big-picture editing, which is focused on flow, pacing, completeness, clarity, and more

• Editing, which is focused on spelling, grammar, sentence construction, and more

• Proofreading, which is focused on catching typos and small errors

Using what we’ve created together in different ways. This can look like:

• Me pulling out quotes, snippets, main points, and more to create the foundation for blog posts, social media shares, and more

• Me suggesting or working to brainstorm with you other ways to share this information (like using an online course as the foundation for a book)

• Other things you dream up!

Note that while this may seem like a lot of information, this is not an exhaustive list! Every project is different because the goal is to have each of us contribute in a way that feels meaningful and supportive. And since each person is different and has a different set of needs, projects really can be designed in many different ways.

So really, this list is designed to help you start thinking about what would feel good for your project. We’ll talk about what you have in mind and design something that’s just right for you!

My Process

I believe in a process of co-creation:

You have the ideas inside of you, but need help getting them out into the world.

I have the skills to help you get those ideas out into the world, but I lack the in-depth knowledge about and passion for the project that only you can bring.

Alone, we would struggle to get your ideas out there.

Together, we can create something truly beautiful.
 

What You Can Expect

I lead with kindness. Whether I'm editing something you've written or suggesting new ideas, I'm aware (and respectful) of the fact that this is your project and that it's important to you.

I also believe you have the answers. So when you ask a question, I'm often going to help you find the answer within yourself rather than simply giving you an answer.

And finally, my aim in editing is for readability. I don't believe that the perfect grammatical construction serves every project, and I don't think you do either. Together, we'll create something readable and meaningful.
