You did it! You just poured your heart—not to mention years of hard-won life experience—into a book manuscript. But now you feel as if the main idea has vanished in a morass of dense prose. The point of the story is unclear. Your arguments are unconvincing. Your characters are trivial, concocted. What now?

If you’re looking for assistance making sense of what you’ve written—fiction or non—I can help. Let's figure out the point you're trying to make and shift all details toward supporting it in the most clear and engaging way for readers.

As a nonfiction specialist with more than 30 years of experience working with traditionally published authors, I would love to guide you in transforming your manuscript into the book you've always wanted to write.

From Memoir and Personal Stories to Popular History, True Crime, Adventure, Self-Help and Wellness, and Business and Professional Development, I focus on:

--Organizing masses of information into a logical, engaging structure that guides readers effortlessly forward (this includes rescuing tangled plots and broken characters arcs)

--Enhancing the clarity of your ideas without obscuring your voice

--Fact-checking and strengthening the accuracy and precision of wording to build your credibility

--Sharpening arguments, eliminating redundancy, and uplifting readability

--Suggesting revisions that elevate your unique voice and wisdom
