Translating Scholarly Work

How can you make your work legible to a broader audience? What are busy acquisitions editors looking for in pitches from academics? We can help review your pitch to make it connect with a broader set of readers.
We can help you brainstorm how to translate your work for a public audience, to write a hook based on current events, and to think about the best place to pitch your writing.
Need an extra set of eyes on work you’re sending out in the world? We can help with structural, line, and copyediting for your public writing.
Feel free to reach out to set up a free call to talk about what kind of support you need translating your work for the general public.
The fee depends on a variety of factors—how quickly you want feedback, the length of the piece, and the number of drafts and meetings. After our first free meeting, we’ll give you a quote that reflects the kind of services that will help you connect your ideas to the world.
Most of the work on translating scholarly work for a public audience is handled by Meera Jagannathan, a recovering journalist and former editor for MarketWatch.
