Richard Isaac – Editor

Hello! As a nonfiction specialist (and lifelong language wonk), I have edited a variety of materials by both native and non-native English speakers — from scholarly to self-help books, from academic journals to community newspapers, from travel guides to ad copy and online content — on numerous topics, for assorted audiences, and using various style guides.

I take pride in accuracy, attention to detail, communication, and consistency. I work well both independently and collaboratively, within constraints and under deadlines. I have also studied ten languages (foremost: Spanish, Swedish, Hebrew, and Arabic) and traveled somewhat widely, which has aided my editing.

I hope that when you are ready for copyediting, my fresh eyes will add clarity and value to your hard work and put it in the best light. I look forward to helping your project shine!
