Overview
Your ideas, my expertise. Tell the story only YOU can with help from a pro. I am the author of 11 novels (Random House, Sourcebooks, Harlequin), mostly YA paranormal romance, dystopian, thriller/suspense, and dark contemporary. However, I am experienced in writing all fiction, including adult (thriller, mystery, steamy romance, etc), young adult, mid-grade and more. I've been nominated for a Romance Writers Association of America RITA in YA fiction. I write quickly and on deadline for numerous satisfied clients.
My main specialty is novels-- all I do is fiction! I've worked with several NYT and USAT bestselling authors to help them fill out their stable of self-published titles. I pride myself on getting "your" style and seamlessly adapting to it. I can write like Nora Roberts or Stephen King. Whatever your style, I can pull it off. I work quickly and can usually finish a GOOD 50k-word novel in 1 month, based on your outline.
If you are a writer, struggling to get traditionally published, I can help. Wondering if you have to sell your soul to attract an agent? Let me take a look at your query letter or book and give you an honest assessment as to why agents have passed you by. Written yourself into a corner? I am a born plot-whisperer who loves to brainstorm and help you find your way out. I offer coaching services, including full-novel critiques and developmental edits, as well as query critiques and career advice. I am proud that I have my name in the acknowledgments of dozens of traditionally published novels, and I would consider it an honor to help you reach your dream of publishing your novel.
The last thing you need to know about me is that I'm not a diva. This is business, and I don't deal in "special." When you contract with me, you can rest assured I will deliver what you want, when you want it. I want us to have fun together, too. I love writing and put my passion and excitement into every word, because I want you to love the process and your finished book. I can't wait to work with you!
