Here’s my RUNNER’S WORLD story on marathon training plans from leading coaches, which won the 2008 ASJA (American Society of Journalists & Authors) “Outstanding Service Article” Award.

Here’s my SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE MAGAZINE profile of a former Microsoft executive who founded Room to Read, a charity that builds school libraries in Asian villages–winner of the 2005 ASJA “Arlene Award” for stories that make a difference. (The story generated more than $100,000 in cash and in-kind contributions by readers.)

Here’s my SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE MAGAZINE feature story on the Ventura Art Walk–winner of the 2005 BATW (Bay Area Travel Writers) “Honorable Mention” Award for general travel articles.

In addition to memberships in SATW, ASJA and BATW, I am a member of the International Travel Writers Alliance (ITWA) and Left Coast Writers (LCW).

Since 2003, Bob has line-edited dozens of writing projects for about a dozen writers. Line editing means that I go line-by-line through a manuscript to catch grammatical, punctuation and other errors. I can also suggest changes in phrasing, word choice, etc.

I have line-edited magazine articles, short stories, business-website content and five books (nonfiction titles on politics and psychology; a novel; and God, Seed, a poetry collection that won a 2011 Indie Excellence award).

I enjoy this work and would be happy to edit your writing. I charge $40/hour. References on request.

MY BACKGROUND AS AN EDITOR:

2003-: Freelance editor for various writers

1990-1992: Executive Editor/Editor-in-Chief, Running Times
1989-1990: Regional Editor, Triathlon Today
1981-1990: Senior Editor, Running Times

Author, The Valley at Your Feet, Fleet Feet Publications, 1980. Out of print.
