Overview
I have previous experience as a master teacher and teaching mentor which helped me develop some useful skills in working with authors. That is, I'm a pretty gentle editor--I don't want to take over the project or frustrate an author. I want what's best for both the writer and the writing. I think of myself as a kind of personal trainer for writers and poets and have worked with both beginning authors and seasoned professionals, like David Bentley Hart.
