About
Hey! I've been involved in the creative world since college, be it writing, editing, translating, workshopping, acting, transcribing - you name it! My work has appeared in many forms: novels, social media content, newsletters, editorials, blog posts to name a few. I spent most of my formative years in France, with parents as journalists, so my relationship with language is definitely complex and time-tested. I am fluent in both English and French and can translate in both directions. I am ready and available to consult on any sort of writing and editing - let me help you with your grant, cover letter, college essay, fiction manuscript, short story, love letter, text message; no project is too big or small. Whether it be structural/big picture or proofreading and copyediting, I can help.

Hired on Thumbtack

I worked on my story with Man of Many Words since 2020. With his help, the work became better structured and characters not necessary to the plot were cut. His edits were helpful and constructive. If something came up, he would let me know promptly. He understood the work was my baby, and let the final decisions be mine.

As an international tour guide, I had a long and arduous process of getting my French work visa. Henry was a bright spot along the way, without him I don't know what I would have done. He was an immense help through the entire process, editing and translating official documents (recommendations, cover letters, resumes, etc) in a timely and accurate manner. Answering questions I had, and giving me tips to make the process as smooth as possible. He is very personable and always goes the extra mile (or kilometer!) Merci Beaucoup, Henry!

When applying for MBA programs I was nervous about writing concise and convincing essays, but Henry was incredibly helpful at editing my thoughts and producing clear statements of purpose. Would definitely recommend him for any project you have and I will be using him again in the future!!!

Henry helped me translate and edit cover letters to French. He is completely fluent in both French and English and understands the nuances of both languages unlike anyone else I’ve met. He understood not only what I wanted to communicate, but also how I could most effectively communicate that in a language that isn’t native to me. He has a great eye for language and I’m so grateful for his help! He was super easy to work with and did everything when I asked him to.

Henry helped my son craft his college essays. I am very pleased with his attention to detail and assistance throughout his hire. My wife and I work full time. So, it was immensely helpful to have someone with his knowledge and attentiveness assist our son in the college application writing process.

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    I am very open to negotiation in terms of pricing - whether it be an hourly rate or a flat fee. I am more than willing to find a happy medium, as long as both parties are satisfied, so that we can focus on the task at hand.

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I like to start by delineating personal goals for the project - preferred type and rate of contact and clear objectives. I believe communication is the essence of collaboration, I want the customer to have everything they need!

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Professionally I have been writing and editing copy for an up and coming startup in New York. I would say my biggest growing space, in terms of writing and editing work, has been through collaboration: I am also an actor and have written and collaborated on screenplays and plays alike I have also been teaching French to a variety of clients online and in person, my parents still reside in Paris so I have the chance to return there often
