Brian Kuhl

Brian Kuhl – Editor

Experienced copyeditor and proofreader of nonfiction books and academic work. When you need a project done thoroughly, accurately, on time.

Overview

I have a master's degree in history and archival studies, as well as an editing certificate offered jointly by The Poynter Institute's News University and ACES: The Society for Editing. I specialize in general nonfiction and academic writing for clients such as Penguin Random House, SUNY Press, and The China Project. I am also the founder and editor of Brush Talks, a journal of nonfiction about China. In that role, I have performed extensive developmental editing, copyediting, fact-checking, and proofreading.

I, like you, am an author as well. I am currently working on a forthcoming biography of a medical missionary to China, based on years of archival research and interviews.
