Overview
I run my own company providing writing and editorial services to those who tell great stories. Much of my business comes from publishers and agents who need help fixing manuscripts. However, I also enjoy working directly with authors who have a desire to say something significant in a world filled with white noise.I'm happy to help with anything from substantive edits to ghostwriting to reviewing proposals and more.
