Tiffany Taing – Editor

I’m Tiffany, a professional book editor based in Golden, CO, with over a decade of experience in the publishing industry. From years working as a production editor to additional years spent as a freelance editor, I've seen it all: contemporary fiction, speculative fiction, historical fiction, fantasy, women's fiction, romance, sci fi, memoirs, cookbooks, journals, coffee-table and photography books, and trivia and pop-culture books. In that time and across that span of genres, I've successfully taken on roles such as project manager and fact-checker, but my specialties lie in developmental editing, copyediting, proofreading, and sensitivity reading. I invite you to browse my portfolio to see specific titles I've worked on.​

The most important thing I've learned in my years as an editor is this: Your work as an author is important, so take it the extra mile before it reaches your readers and help your writing shine even more.
