Whatever your business, you know communication is key to telling your story, finding funding, and marketing your product or services.  




Good writing and clean copy can make the difference between yes and no.  Pyxis provides writing and editing solutions streamlined to business and nonprofit environments.

Editorial and Writing Services

I offer a range of options including Project Development, ideal for the person just beginning to explore their project.  I will listen to your goals and help you outline your first steps, be it a manuscript idea, a collaborative project, or help with marketing ideas.

Multiple session packages are available for the writer who feels they need a regular check-in to stay focused and move forward.


Other Services
Some projects have many moving parts or they require more time, research, and collaboration to get off the ground.  Is your project or transition just beginning?  Is your timeline long range?  Do you need to connect with experts in other fields?  Find funding?
