Ned Popkins is a Writing Coach & Editing Specialist. Colleagues describe him as "Ned Popkins is what may be best described as a writer’s editor. Rather than simply redlining copy, he strives to enhance it through better storytelling and organization, and a laser-focused attention to accuracy. He is sensitive to the “story,” and to what the writer is trying to convey, rather than simply leaving his editing trail. I worked with Ned for many years at the Orlando Sentinel and saw his handiwork more recently on a book authored by the CEO of a global nonprofit organization. His integrity is without blemish, his professionalism and ethics unrivaled. He approaches his work, whether editing copy or analyzing complex data, with intense curiosity and attention to detail, intelligence and thoughtfulness. Ned is simply one of the great editors." and "Ned Popkins is what may be best described as a writer’s editor.
