The Harping Editor works with authors and businesses to improve the quality of written English in any format.

The principal editor, Beth Bolwerk, is a both a harpist and word maven, hence the name “The Harping Editor.”

Good writing, like beautiful music, should flow and clearly communicate ideas. As a musician Beth has the unique ability to “hear” when writing is missing that flow and clarity, and as a writer and editor she is highly skilled at correcting the issues. The result is smoother, tighter, more effective communications.

Why Use an Editor?

It is a fact of neurology that it is difficult to see errors in something you’ve written. Even if you aren’t the author, the same difficulty occurs when you’ve stared at content for too long – it’s impossible to see it with fresh eyes. For this reason, it’s crucial to have someone review your work. It’s even more valuable when that reviewer has the skills to suggest better word choices, organization, logical construction and flow.

Whether you’re preparing a book manuscript, marketing collateral, presentation, proposal, website or email newsletter, taking advantage of professional editing services is well worth the investment.
