Dear Writer,
These are the ethics that guide me in my work as a developmental editor. I celebrate and respect authors, and recognize the incredible accomplishment finishing a manuscript is, whether your piece is a short story or lengthy tome. Writing is the act of creating something from nothing. It is adding one word after another to a blank page. Through writing, new worlds are created. New ideas are brought forth to others. Hearts and minds are connected through stories, truths revealed, adventures had without ever leaving one’s chair.
Just as there is a near infinite number of stories to be told, there are just as many ways to tell a single story. Your voice as an author is unique and important, and it shapes the story you are telling. It’s my job—and my honor—to help ensure your voice shines in your manuscript and that your story is told through its most effective means possible to resonate with your readers. I would love to work with you and your story, whether it’s through editing, assessing an outline, providing learning materials, or extensive author coaching.
Your story matters. Your voice matters. Your work is in good hands. I have a decade of celebrating authors and working with them in myriad ways. Whether you are an indie author looking to self-publish, or an author aspiring to earn an agent and traditional contract, let’s work toward those goals together.
Thanks for stopping by. My list of services is available here, and you can learn more about the editor behind Read the Stars, as well as find blog posts dedicated to tackling problematic subjects in writing, and other resources. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me!
