About

Twenty years experience editing nonfiction books for publishers and marketing materials. I love helping people convey their message clearly and tell their story well.

For the last twenty years I have been an effective project manager and communications specialist, working on all sorts of projects from cookbooks to academic books to writing press releases and web copy. Each year I manage multiple projects simultaneously to keep them on schedule, on budget, and on message. I have worked at small publishers to large houses (Thomas Nelson and Perseus Books Group). My passion is to help writers and authors to find their voice and their audience. I desire to make other people writing better.

Work Terms

Generally, I work 9-5 Monday to Friday and occasionally work Saturdays to catch up.
I prefer to be paid a quarter in advance and the balance upon completion via either PayPal or Stripe but can take a check. I'd rather communicate via phone or email but am used to all sorts of methods (Skype, Slack, What's App, or text).
