Editing Projects

Peer Reviews

In a recent Grant Writing course, I recieved and gave peer review feedback for grant drafts for Barrie Bryant and Petraq Kosho. Peer review feedback I gave them carefully considered audience, readability, and organization and took into account the possible point-of-view of a hostile reader.

COSMOS Copyediting

All authors I have worked with at the COSMOS Research Center have signed consent forms for the publishing of their unedited work and drafts. Furthermore, these consent forms outline the limited nature of what I may report here in this portfolio.

The following authors have signed consent forms to allow publishing their previous unedited or unpublished work/drafts.

These work samples exhibit some of the editing principles I consider and look for in my proofreading, such as the following:

  • When describing specific methods and results, rephrasing for past tense;
  • Moving phrases around to avoid misunderstanding or confusion;
  • Carefully considering pronoun and subject alignment;
  • Carefully noting or changing usage of the indefinite article (“a”) versus the definite (“the”) article when discussing subjects.
