Overview
Formerly of Simon & Schuster, I am a bestselling book collaborator and expert publishing consultant who loves using my insider knowledge of the publishing industry and wealth of experience to help others reach their publishing goals. Since 1999, I've assisted, guided, and supported hundreds of would-be authors on their publishing journey; I take pride in serving as their books’ best ally. I have extensive experience with self-help/how-to titles and ***specialize in prescriptive nonfiction*** including business, health and wellness, mind/body/spirit, home and garden, and relationships and other topics of interest to women.
***I do not work with memoir.***
Client list includes such companies as Simon & Schuster, Rodale Press/Prevention Books, Hay House, Reader's Digest, Sunrise River Press, and Kaplan Publishing as well as independently published bestsellers.
I am no longer taking on ghostwriting clients, however, I work personally with authors one on one and in group settings to help them write their own books with professional guidance, support, and feedback. I'll take you from refining your concept to writing your draft and even publishing and marketing your book, saving you the time, energy, and money so many new authors waste on mistakes and wrong turns.
NOTE: Selected works in portfolio below represent a range of ghostwriting projects, consulting/coaching projects, and book doctoring projects which includes a high level of editing, rewriting, and ghostwritten portions.

I have stopped offering ghostwriting services in order to better serve clients who wish to write their own prescriptive nonfiction (NOT MEMOIR) books--either out of desire or budgetary reasons--but who want to make sure they are writing the right book for their audiences and goals, and who want to save time and money by getting it right the first time. I now work personally with authors one on one and in group settings to help them write their own books with professional guidance, support, and feedback.
