I'm an experienced culture writer, having covered music, books, and theater for a variety of publications while pursuing my graduate education.

In my journalistic work, I bring my background in critical theory and literary analysis to bear on a broad range of topics, paying close attention to how a given text reflects, challenges, or even changes its surrounding cultural and political environments. I am comfortable writing in a variety of styles, from academic prose to reviews, interviews, reported pieces, and lists, and I am very eager to experiment with new digital formats in expanding my ability to tell stories and engage in critical analysis of cultural artifacts and trends.

I am a San Francisco Bay Area-based independent writer and editor--formerly of HarperCollins (where, until I went rogue in 2014, I was an executive editor) and Random House--with a penchant for the outdoors, sports, and samurai movies and a martially tuned perspective. My experience is in manuscript analysis, book doctoring, writing proposals, and ghostwrit...(boo), and I'm also extremely happy to contribute articles of general interest. With a journalism degree from NYU, and having worked as an editor or agent with authors as diverse as singer-songwriter Willie Nelson, football great Jerry Rice, TOMS Shoes' Blake Mycoskie, mixed martial artist Georges St. Pierre, fashion icon Lauren Conrad, and comediennes Rachel Shukert and Laurie Notaro, I am an egghead of the world.

Shaun Tolson

Cumberland, RI

WriterEditorCopywriter

Over the course of my journalism career, I've traveled to five continents, writing stories on a diverse set of topics--from desert treks through Jordan to golf journeys throughout China. In all of those cases -- and for every assignment that I take on (including the ones that don't require me to leave my desk) -- I try to emphasize the human element of an experience or a situation, finding the people involved whose stories bring life and meaning to the piece. I work primarily as a lifestyle writer (I've focused on the luxury industries for much of my career), and I pride myself on delivering clean copy that is engaging and well written. Most of all, I'm adept at recognizing the nuances that define and distinguish different audiences, which allows me to always write to the reader and -- when necessary -- with a specific reader in mind.
