Richard Pallardy – Editor

I'm a writer with with 15 years of experience. I have worked with a number of high-profile publishers. I was an editor for Encyclopedia Britannica for seven years and have bylines with Earth Island Journal, National Geographic Learning, Areo Magazine, Arc Digital, and The American Gardener. My work for Britannica has been cited in a number of publications.

I provide writing, editing, and fact-checking services for a wide variety of clients, from financial service firms to human rights organizations to marijuana advocacy publications, to name a few. As a writer, I bring a flare for language and a willingness to adjust my style to the needs of the client. I am a scrupulous editor, with an eye for clarifying syntax, simplifying meaning, and reorganizing for readability. And I have a gimlet eye for factual accuracy, with a wide and ever-expanding knowledge of reliable sources and a deep understanding of how even minor adjustments in framing can affect the veracity of a statement.
