Overview
A former editor for HarperCollins and Simon & Schuster and now a freelancer with years of experience behind me, I’m a versatile editor who truly loves children’s literature—whether that means a picture book about a lost dog, a middle grade fantasy, or a young adult nonfiction title.
If you are looking for an editor to help shape a book from its early stages, I can offer a developmental edit that will:
• Look into pacing, flow, and structure, using these elements to create a suspenseful build to a satisfying climax.
• Advise on character development.
• Read with an eye on style and smoothness so a reader stays engaged and eager to turn pages.
If your project is further along and you want a final set of eyes, I can:
• Check grammar and spelling.
• Catch logical inconsistencies and breaks in chronology.
• Create a style guide to keep everything clear and consistent.
If you’re not sure what service would be right for you, I’m happy to take a quick look and offer you my best advice on what would be most beneficial.
My goal is to help your book be the best it can be, with clear and compassionate feedback that respects your voice and vision.
