Doris Fisher – Editor

Picture Books R Me! I edit and write picture books and queries. Fiction, nonfiction, prose and poetry. Nationally published author

Overview

I am a nationally published children’s picture book author, three of them in rhyme. I have been editing and writing for others for more than fifteen years. I have attended 40+ conferences for children’s writers and am a former kindergarten teacher. I know the age level and targeted vocabulary very well.

I have been writing for children for 15+ years. Picture books are my love. I only write literature for children.
Helping writers achieve their dream of a fabulous picture book or children's story is my goal in all my freelancing. I know the structure of picture books, word count, and age level of any reader who can't wait to read my client's writing. Suggestions and comments are made in a constructive manner. I usually edit changes in red text and make comments and picture book advice in blue text. My edits are thorough and I continue to edit until my client is satisfied. Picture Books R Me!

I needed a fresh pair of eyes to edit my story and Doris successfully did that. I was impressed by her ability to make my story better and clearer by simply adding a phrase, deleting a word, or changing the sentence altogether. Her vast knowledge and experience in picture books was evident in the work she presented me with. I felt free to accept or reject her recommendations because I was worki...
