Jayson MacLean

I’m a structural editor and copy editor who edits both fiction and nonfiction. I have a PhD in philosophy and expertise in the editing of academic journal articles, dissertations and grant applications. I am also a writer and researcher with years of experience writing content, short stories and feature articles. My content and article writing has been in fields such as science and technology and society and culture.

If you are an academic looking for an editor, I can assess your work for style and clarity and help you strengthen and tighten up your arguments. I have decades of experience in analyzing argumentative structure and logical flow, and I’m very motivated to help authors get their research out there in its best and most accessible form.

If you are a writer or self-publishing author looking for either collaborative help in developing your work or a structural or copy edit to bring it to completion, I offer a patient and compassionate approach, from one writer to another. I have a keen eye for style and tone, and I will work diligently with you to help take your work from draft to finished project. If you are looking for a co-writer or a ghostwriter to work with on a project close to your heart, I would love to help bring your story to life.

I’m trained in mediation and conflict resolution, with a very understanding disposition and a deep-seated inclination to help clients take their projects where they’d like them to go.

If you are looking for a content or article writer for your publication, I deliver results that are SEO-optimized and well-adapted to target markets. I have years of experience producing copy in fast-paced environments and I know how to write pieces creatively and effectively. I’m also very easy to work with and I consider it a privilege to adapt my approach to fully meets a client’s needs and expectations.
