Benjamin DeVos

Benjamin DeVos – Editor

Devoted publisher and editor specializing in horror, sci-fi, and literary fiction.

Overview

As an accomplished editor with a rich background in running my own small press, Apocalypse Party, I bring over a decade of extensive experience in the literary landscape. With a meticulous eye for detail and a passion for refining manuscripts, I have edited and overseen the production of nearly forty published books across the genres of horror, sci-fi, and literary fiction.


As an editor, I enjoy working on every level, whether that's major developmental edits, or delving into the finer details of grammar, craft, and consistency. I believe open communication between author and editor is of utmost importance, and my goal is to make sure your manuscript reaches its fullest potential while still achieving your overall vision.
