Research writing
Essays, chapters, and briefs built from primary sources.
History, theology, and the humanities. A question is narrowed, the sources are read, and the argument is written in plain, sourced prose.
Services
Work that can be checked.
Each engagement is scoped in writing: length, sources, style sheet, deadline, and how many revisions are included. There is no catalogue of unnamed products.
Manuscript development
A draft taken from notes, outline, or stalled chapter to a readable whole.
Structure, voice, and pacing. Suitable for a book in progress, a long article, or a commissioned pamphlet.
Editing and proofreading
The author’s own text, made clearer and consistent.
Developmental notes, line editing, or a final proof. Chicago, MLA, or APA, named at the start and held to the end.
Commissioned pieces
Articles, talks, and long-form work written to a brief.
For publication, an organization, or a private project. The brief, the audience, and the byline are agreed before a word is drafted.
