Overview
I love a good HEA, don't you? If you have a love story to tell, let me help you make it shine!
I am an experienced and enthusiastic editor with an eye for detail and easy solutions for your storytelling snags. Tell me your trope and together we can craft it into a book that has your readers begging for more. I know how hard it is to get from that first blank page to "the end" -- I've successfully edited countless novels. It can be a hard fought battle at times, one that I fully understand. It takes a great team to make this kind of magic happen and I'm here for you from your initial pages until you're ready to publish.
Romance novels are my specialty. They are not about just the steamy require two interesting protagonists and a great conflict. You need to make the audience connect with your characters emotionally and I have a heathy respect for the genre as a reader, a writer and as an editor. I take this very subject very seriously! Together, we can see your next novel all the way to the finish line. By the way -- I love working with first time authors. I have lots of valuable information to share and make myself available for all of your burning questions. Believe me, I've heard them all and I'm there for you!
I've taken unknown authors from unsolicited submission to the NYTimes bestseller list and have won multiple editing awards. I'd love to guide you on your publishing journey and help you celebrate your success!
