Hello, my name is Robin

I want this world to be a sustainable, fair, and kind place. I've been fortunate to work with some of the world’s best thinkers and brightest leaders to define, refine, and communicate their ideas, visions, and strategies, mostly around projects that make me feel like I'm pulling in that direction.

​

By day I am a Senior Acquisitions Editor at Johns Hopkins University Press, where I am growing the world's best list in public health and health policy books. This site started with a newsletter that I created with the goal of simply helping my authors write better and navigate the publishing process more successfully. As the readership increased it became clear that I had an opportunity to help more people write more books, better. For those of you with whom I can't work in my official capacity, I offer a couple of options.

My methods are not complicated, but if you haven't spent the past couple of decades working with a diverse set of writers, you probably haven't had the chance to stumble onto them or to figure out for yourself how they fit together. The simple systems I use for communicating complex ideas effectively have been used by scholars, business leaders, activists, and bestselling authors.

​

I take immense pride in the knowledge that my authors are using their books to change the world for the better. The name for the site came from a very simple idea: you're already an expert in your own area; I want you to build the skills to write like an expert, too.
