Editor, tutor, teacher--my editorial services reflect my background of helping writers develop their own voices and style!
I am still building my client base, but my projects to date include a self-help book on parenting and an Arthurian novel with a historical setting.

My work with the Camelot Project was part of my duties as a library assistant at the Rossell Hope Robbins Library at the University of Rochester.

The Wallace catalogs the sheer brutality of war. We are regaled with such detailed accounts of the sacking of towns and the burning down of buildings full of screaming inhabitants that the smells and sounds, as well as the terrible sights, of war are graphically conveyed in language which seems designed not only to express Wallace's rage and Hary's antipathy but also to incite hatred of the En... read more
