Charlotte the Wordsmith

Know what you want to say, but having trouble expressing it? Have you done mountains of research or you’re an expert in your field, but your writing still doesn’t capture the depth, breadth and dynamism of your knowledge? Blocked or overwhelmed? So deep in your prose, you no longer know what it’s saying? Need an attentive editor with an eye for grammar, consistency and flow?

I can help.

I’m Charlotte Gartenberg, and I’ve been teaching, editing and coaching writers of all stripes for over a decade. As a PhD in literature and a writer myself, I can guide you through writing’s challenges, help you find more joy in the process and ensure you produce outstanding work in your own voice.

I am a writer, editor and translator with a PhD in Hispanic literature. I know the trials and tribulations that come with every stage of writing and have helped fellow writers through them all. I excel at stepping back from a piece, articulating what it is and is not communicating, and helping writers adjust. I also cherish the nitty gritty, from how to keep going when you’re blocked to correcting grammar, syntax and punctuation. I can’t wait to bring my eye for detail and love of words to whatever you’re working on.
