Open Professional and Technical Editing with Handbook
Open Professional and Technical Editing with Handbook is an openly licensed and collaboratively developed digital textbook for introductory professional editing courses. I contributed as an undergraduate author in a year-long open-pedagogy project involving undergraduate and graduate students.
This project also influenced my participation as a panelist in the Open Education Association's Student Rights in the Era of AI webinar.

Read This Before You Self-Publish Your Work!
In this research-based article, I explore the limitations of self-editing and AI-assisted revision for first-time nonfiction authors. Drawing on research in writing cognition, revision, and professional editing, the article examines why writers struggle to see their own work objectively and how professional editors provide valuable audience-centered feedback.
