How I Can Help

When looking for an experienced editor or writer, you want to trust your content to someone with proven results. I teach both creative fiction and nonfiction writers to see the bigger picture and to write stronger stories by diving in and pulling the best out of their work with heavy developmental and substantive editing that goes beyond the surface of the content to create the story every writer longs to share—one every reader loves to read—so they launch with confidence, shine brighter, and go farther.


  

"You are so detailed and thorough, always raising the quality."
