Matt Hanson – Editor

As a writer and journalist, I have ample experience as a reporter, essayist and critic, with well over a decade of professional publications to my name, mostly in the fields of culture, politics and the environment. As an editor, I assist in the preparation of texts for academic journals, university presses, art galleries, cultural museums and other institutions. Often commissioning work by referral in academia and the art world, I specialize in cultural theory, historical studies and archaeological scholarship, and in the culture sector I work as a copyeditor and proofreader for artist books and catalogue texts.

Whether your book is narrative nonfiction or a collection of academic essays, cultural criticism or a literary travelogue -- either in American or British formatting -- it will be tightly revisioned and expanded from within, as I not only attend to line edits with respect to word choice and grammatical correctness, but I will also enrich the inner-workings of your writing with constructive commentary, expanding on the dynamics of readership and topicality without interfering in your voice or the overall distinction of your work.
