Overview
I'm a writer and editor who's worked both in publishing and as a freelancer. From young adult fiction to scifi to nonfiction, I have up-to-date knowledge of the marketplace. At Simon and Schuster, I worked at Howard Books, their Christian imprint, and I know the ins and outs of the Christian market as well. I also worked at Atria, on biography, memoir, and fiction.
I can help you hone your proposal, reevaluate your manuscript, and get everything ready to send out into the world so that you have the chance to put your best foot forward with agents and editors. I can help you move from a draft to the finished product you're envisioning, but can't quite reach. I can't wait to work with you! Drop me a line, and let's get started.
Note: I never use AI, and I choose not to work with those who use it. I put a lot of time and effort into this craft, so I like to collaborate with people who will also put that same time and effort into their manuscript!
