BIO

I'm Hannah Johnson. You may have guessed by now that I'm an editor. I love to help authors organize their thoughts, and I'm especially interested in nonfiction prose and job applications.

Why editing? I'm classically trained in linguistics, and I've come to learn that the way we communicate changes how we perceive the world and ourselves. I want to fill the world with uplifting material that is thought-provoking and created with care. Maybe that means that I want to uplift, provoke thoughts, and create with care. At least, I want to help the creators who do so.

​

I'm a recovering perfectionist. I don't believe in one perfect manuscript of any kind. But I believe in pursuing a manuscript's perfect potential, and I believe that together, writers and editors can create something beautiful within that pursuit.
