Overview
I love to work collaboratively with my clients. On the creative side of my job, I specialize in developmental edits (particularly with an eye towards plot and structure), as well as evaluating query letters alongside drafting submission pitch letters.
For developmental editing, my taste and expertise leans commercial - bring me any romance or mystery/thriller! I tend to not engage with more literary works. In nonfiction, I love anything from memoir to self-help.
For query and pitch letters, I can evaluate letters and submissions of any genre.
I'm clear, kind and direct in all of my professional relationships, and I aspire to make any book I work on the best it can be. I'm excited to read your story!
Please note: my freelance editing work is completely separate from my literary agenting. I do not represent or refer authors I work with here. My work on Reedsy is editorial support only, and not a path to representation.
