Olsen Editing

Introduction: Olsen Editing has many components. As an Editor, I have worked on various types of manuscripts: At Binary Press, I edited collections of poetry where I created a personal dialogue with the authors and did a close line by line content edit. At Jolly Fish Press, I copy-edited and proof-read many novel-length manuscripts under strict deadlines. As Editor-in-Chief of the undergraduate journal, Metaphor, I edited a collection which contained poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and art. These multi-level editing opportunities have given me a wide scope of experience in different genres and works. As a Master-Tutor, I taught undergraduates how to work on essays and creative writing working on a range of issues from the structure to punctuation. I have experience working with ESL students as well as students with special needs. As a writer, I have had poetry, fiction, and blogs published both in print and online. My experience is matched by my passion for the written word. Every piece of writing is an opportunity to create a dialogue with the audience. Each story, poem, resume, or essay is an extension of the author. As such, I enjoy amplifying this unique voice. Polishing a piece of writing is like baking the perfect cake. The ingredients may be unique, but unless you know how to put them together, the cake will never rise. I want to make your work simmer with flavor and surprise your audience. I want to make your words sweet and savory all at once.
