ABOUT ME

I have had a love of stories all my life. There's something magical about a tale of hope and triumph that drew me to fairy tales and fantasy novels from a young age. ​As I got older I started studying what makes a good story, what gives a book that spark that makes readers burn the midnight oil and count the days until the sequel comes out.

​

I have an English language degree and an editing minor from BYU. My college education was all about how English speakers use words to convey meaning. I'm not a stickler for archaic or formal grammar rules. My goal is to make sure that the author's meaning is coming through clearly to the readers.

 

For several years, I worked at a small traditional publisher in acquisitions, editing, and layout. There I coordinated with bookstores, distributors, and marketing professionals. Now I take all that experience and use it to help authors achieve their publishing goals.

 

I have edited over 50 published novels. My editing style is all about empowering authors to make informed decisions for their manuscripts and to better connect with their readers. Whether you are interested in a traditional or self-publishing route, I want to help you prepare your manuscript for publication.
