Former Tor Books editor with 7+ years experience, and a special love for fantasy, historical and YA. Speaks writer because I am one.
Working my way up from assistant on major projects like A DOG'S PURPOSE to editing my own list of highly acclaimed commercial fiction, I worked with debuts, internationally bestselling authors, and everything in-between during my seven years with Tor/Forge Books.
I worked with a team of fifteen brilliant columnists to provide advice and wisdom on all areas of writing, from self-care to genre specialties. I also produced the podcast, DIY MFA Radio, hosting authors from all corners of the industry to talk craft, publishing, and more.
