Writer and editor

Writing can be difficult; it’s not always simple to communicate what you want to say in an essay, article, or book manuscript. Whatever the problem, I can help.

What I love 

You'll benefit from my extensive experience of successful academic publishing and teaching.

I love writing, reading, and editing: I’ve got extensive experience of successful academic publishing, teaching at school and university levels, and working with authors at different stages of their academic journey.

What I believe

Everybody has the capacity for original and sophisticated thinking
about the topics that inspire them.

Often all you need is a fresh set of eyes and a sympathetic conversation to produce writing that will make you proud and excite your readers. This is what inspired me to set up this service.

Testimonials

Editing a manuscript written by a non-native speaker is an arduous task, as it requires not only prudence in order not to change the meaning of what the author is trying to say, but also flexibility so as not to change too much their way of saying it. Adam was a careful editor, who not only immediately grasped what my text meant but also proposed alternatives to express my ideas in a more precise, economical, and elegant manner. I would recommend without hesitation Adam Lecznar's editing service.

Professor of ancient philosophy

Lecznar’s volume is a rare volume because of the excellence of his ideas and the quality of research and writing. It masterfully shows how our life is shaped by modernity’s appropriation of an ancient Greek heritage.
