Welcome!

News, reviews, marketing copy — I do it all.
Hello, and wel­come to richardnblock.com.

I’m an edi­tor of fic­tion, non­fic­tion, and jour­nal­ism. I have per­formed edi­to­r­ial work in many dif­fer­ent set­tings, includ­ing news­pa­pers, mag­a­zines, and the edu­ca­tional and cor­po­rate worlds. I pro­vide ser­vices rang­ing from basic proof­read­ing to in-depth, devel­op­men­tal edit­ing, for clients includ­ing com­pa­nies and indi­vid­ual authors.

I am a writer, reporter, and reviewer. I got my start in arts and enter­tain­ment jour­nal­ism, and soon branched out into gov­ern­ment, edu­ca­tion, fea­tures, and general-assignment report­ing. I also have tech­ni­cal and busi­ness writ­ing expe­ri­ence; most recently, I have pro­duced win­ning pro­pos­als for a For­tune 1,000 com­pany and search-engine-optimized copy for the Web sites of com­pa­nies in the health-care industry.

In addi­tion, as a skilled pho­tog­ra­pher with pro­fes­sional dig­i­tal cam­era equip­ment, I can pro­duce art for my own assign­ments. Please visit my pho­tog­ra­phy site or my Flickr page for more information.

Based near Los Ange­les, I am avail­able for jour­nal­ism assign­ments and edi­to­r­ial con­sul­ta­tion. Please use the links above and to the right to find out more about what I do.
