A few words about
What I Do
I work exclusively with nonfiction authors to help them level up, fine-tune their writing, and advance their publishing goals. My approach is high-touch, tough but compassionate, and completely tailored to their individual needs.
As an editor, I offer manuscript evaluation, line editing, and developmental editing services to writers of books about virtually any subject matter, though I’m always particularly eager to work with authors of memoir, narrative nonfiction, and personal development books.
As a coach—while I’m happy to support any type of nonfiction author—I lean toward clients who have special needs and face particular challenges, for example, people with ADHD and women 55+. And although I offer numerous coaching services, I specialize in helping writers create outstanding book proposals and develop persuasive pitching strategies.
Can I guarantee your book will be published? No. No one can. The uncomfortable truth is that a very small percentage of authors snag a publishing deal, and no one can predict exactly what will capture the imagination of an agent, editor, or publisher. But there are ways to improve the odds that you’ll be among the few who will. Not the lucky few, because luck has little to do with. It takes skill, perseverance, and a whole lot of support. Let’s work together to help you do your best work and move forward confidently to give you the best chance with whichever publishing path you take.
