Uk/France

My colleagues and I have launched this revival (online at fortnightlyreview.co.uk) of a famous 19th century periodical as an experiment in applying digital technology and modern editorial principles to an older set of design and critical criteria.

Editorial Director/Chief Content Officer

For a number of years, I supervised and managed a broad network of experienced trade book professionals in creating transcript-based book content for clients who had only limited time for writing. Over that period, I helped to develop and direct a very reliable process that insured the delivery of high quality manuscripts for hundreds of publishing projects, each informed by a careful regard for unique qualities of voice, flow, narrative and book architecture. It's a challenging process gaining popularity in this publishing segment, and it's one that I understand completely and execute to a very high standard.
