Copy Editing Samples

Welcome to my copy editing portfolio! Over the last 12 years, I have worked editing personal essays, technical reports and articles, corporate policies and forms, cover letters, and more. Writing is a bridge between the author's mind and the audience. My first step with editing is to identify the author's voice and intent, then to work with them to create the most effective version of that bridge.  

This page contains samples of work I am permitted to post publicly. I can at this time provide free editing for up to two pages in exchange for public posting of the markup. Please email me at michael@michaelzzaki.com with any questions or inquiries about working together.
