Overview

I'm passionate about helping authors tell their stories in the most compelling way they can. I guide writers to learn and develop while maintaining their unique voices.

My skills include manuscript evaluation, substantive editing, content editing, line editing, polishing, copyediting, and proofreading.

Kate Sherwood says, "It’s pretty rare to read edits that make me feel better about my writing, but Alicia manages to produce just that, without skimping on the suggestions for improvement. I offer an unqualified recommendation."
