Blog Editing

Struggling with a blog post? Looking for feedback about your writing?

I offer one-on-one blog editing to help you improve your writing and find more readers.

I can help you

  • Capture the reader’s attention.
    • Hone your introductions so that the reader immediately recognizes the value of your writing
  • Understand your audience.
    • Ensure that you’re speaking the reader’s language and explaining things in terms they’ll understand.
  • Identify anti-patterns.
    • Find blind spots in your writing that hold you back from reaching more readers.

How does it work?

  1. You send me a draft of one of your blog posts that you’d like to improve and answers to the questions below.
  2. I review your first draft and give you detailed notes.
  3. I answer any questions you have about my notes.
  4. You send me a revised draft based on the notes.
  5. I review your new draft and offer follow-up notes.

Pre-review questions

In order to give you notes that serve your goals, I ask you to answer the following questions when you send me your first draft:

  1. What are your goals for the post?
    • e.g., reach the front page of Hacker News, rank well in search engines for certain search terms
  2. Who is the audience for this post?
    • e.g., beginner Python developers, mid-level tech managers
  3. What level of technical expertise is required to read this post?
    • What terms and concepts should the reader understand to be a good match for this post?
    • What terms and concepts in the post do you expect to be unfamiliar to the reader?
  4. What benefit does the reader get from reading the post?
    • e.g., learn a new technique, enjoy a fun rant
  5. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the post?
    • What does it currently do well?
    • Where do you feel like it needs the most work?
