Precision
Precision is the highest standard to which any writer can aspire. It is the demanding art of "using the right word, not its second cousin."

Achievement of precision is hard work. That is why all writers need editors.

I am a good collaborator. My combination of education and experience (
see my resumé) enables me to work effectively in both scientific and nonscientific fields.

Send me e-mail about your writing project.
