Our slogan at LSE is, "Writing should be joyful," so I've picked the most joyful day of the year to relaunch LSE and get a fresh start for 2017!

Why the change? Most of my returning clients know that 2016 was a very difficult year for me: illnesses, an unexpected relocation, and an unexpected death. In the wake of having my reset-button hit, I decided that LSE needed a fresh start and a change of focus, too.

What's changing? When I started LSE, I knew that I could rely on my experience and expertise in rhetoric and composition to meet almost any editorial need, and I knew quite a few fellow freelancers, graphic designers, speech-writers, and writers who would be excellent partners in developing more-involved projects or projects outside my areas of expertise. But I've decided to shift the business's focus to the areas of editing and writing that I care about most: working on professional documents with small- and mid-sized companies (mostly in finance and other for-profit areas), working with academics (primarily for journal articles), and writing education.

What about that "education" part of the change? It was always my intention with LSE to give away my knowledge about writing, editing, linguistics, and the discipline of rhetoric and composition. That's why the Oratoria exists!

LSE is still here to help make writing joyful for you. No matter what kind of writing and editing project you have, no matter what sector or what discipline, you can always reach out to LSE to get advice. We’re open for consultations. Even if LSE isn't the right place to get affordable help with your project, chances are that we can put you in touch with another service that can help you, and as the LSE founder, I’m always happy to give you my honest, professional opinion about your project.
