Julien Bourbiaux

Web writer for the decathlon.fr website, I offer "sports advice" articles that aim to combine pedagogy, conciseness and... a touch of humor.

The rigor of current practice in the print publishing world naturally leads me to demand it in my web writing services. However, I adapt my writing to the expectations of digital (linking, semantic enrichment, etc.) while responding to my client's request.

I also produce columns, interviews, and portraits for the cultural magazine Let's Motiv, as well as reports for Decathlon's internal magazine.

As a freelance editor for publishing groups such as Michelin, Albin Michel, or Eyrolles, my work mainly focuses on illustrated books like travel guides, but also on books and journals in the humanities. I also contribute to the editing (critical reading, copy preparation, rewriting) of Les Others and 200 magazines, as well as the Reliefs journal.

From the reception of the manuscript to the sending of the finalized file, the stages of my work involve copy preparation in conjunction with the author, proofreading according to current orthotypographical standards, finalization of graphic elements (iconography/infographics/cartography), and layout optimization in InDesign. Where applicable, I ensure the complete editorial follow-up of print projects.

Organization, autonomy, and listening skills allow me to guarantee deadlines while establishing good communication between the different stakeholders.

Therefore, do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your online and/or paper editorial project.
