Travis Moran – Editor

Hey, I'm Travis — and I've been helping both established authors and emerging writers reach their target readers for over 20 years.

Early on, I worked in-house, cultivating MLB, NBA, NCAA, NFL, and NHL content from concept to consumer while collaborating with sports legends like Myron Cope, Leo Mazzone, and Dennis Rodman. More recently, I developed 120+ NBA-related articles for TrueHoop while providing structural feedback for Henry Abbott’s “Ballistic” (Norton, 2025). In between, I taught creative writing at a Beijing university.

Along with their stories, I develop authors. Each manuscript offers a chance to expand a toolkit and fortify confidence. From formless premise to polished manuscript, I'll help you shape a story that resonates with your target reader.

Whether you’re a first-timer with a story worth telling, a journalist cultivating a long-form piece, or a creative writer working on sports-adjacent novel, I’d love to hear about your project.

Though I bid selectively, I respond to all requests.
