Hummingbird Writing provides professional writing, editing and documentation services for technical, business, government and not-for-profit clients. We can bring together and edit what your team has already written, or create a document from scratch according to your brief.
We can assist with any important document produced by your organisation, including annual reports, bids and proposals, technical papers and reports, operations manuals, work instructions, award nominations, or strategy documents (to name just a few!).
Polishing your document for success
Our goal is to give your document the best chance of success according to its intended audience and purpose. This can mean doing any or all of the following:
- tightening up the writing by eliminating common issues like wordiness, redundancy, excessive jargon, inappropriate tone, too much passive voice, ambiguity, vagueness, incorrect punctuation, or spelling and grammar errors (but don't worry, we're not here to judge your grammar – we're here to ensure every word counts for you, not against you!).
- ensuring your document includes all required elements – for example, that a bid has all required sections, or that a paper meets a publishing journal's style and formatting requirements.
- identifying other opportunities to enhance your message and chance of success – for example, by making the writing more precise, tactful, readable or persuasive.
- applying Plain English principles to ensure your technical content is made accessible to non-expert audiences.
