Overview

I am a publisher, author, and librarian. I've got 15 years in the book industry. My company has 50 titles out. I know what it takes for a book to go from okay to good, or good to great, and I know how to sell it once it's polished. I'm an avid reader. I appreciate everything from literary fiction to comic books. I also write professional book reviews. So this is my first and last love, my alpha and omega.
