FAQs

  • Before drafting anything, we talk through your ideas, tone, and the way you naturally explain things. I use voice samples, interviews, and guided questions to understand your rhythms and preferences. The final draft should read like something you genuinely would have written on your best day, not a generic ghostwritten piece.

  • That’s completely fine. The Thoughtful Draft is designed to help you clarify your direction. Many clients start with scattered notes, half-formed concepts, or a general feeling they want to explore. We’ll shape the material together so the draft has a clear angle and purpose.

  • Yes. Op-eds, essays, and thought pieces written through this service can be shaped for outlets like The Atlantic, Vox, Wired, or other major publications. I’ll help you refine your angle and tone so it matches what editors look for, while still keeping your voice at the center.

  • Revisions are part of the process. Once you review the draft, you can request changes, clarifications, or tonal adjustments. My goal is to make sure the piece feels aligned with your message, your voice, and the emotional intent behind it. We refine until it feels right.
