Hello, storytellers and wordsmiths! 👋🏻 Happ

Hello, storytellers and wordsmiths! 👋🏻

Happy 2023! Personally, I am very, very happy to see 2022 go (while acknowledging that a new year doesn't truly change anything).

Yet, I am a sucker for making new intentions for the next 12 months. One is to work with more clients this year, as health issues made this take a backseat last year. Which was, honestly, heartbreaking, because I love this kind of work!

So, hit me up with what questions you might have about why working with a freelance editor is beneficial in the comments. Or, check out my website (link in bio) to learn more about my services. Or, don't think we're a good fit? That's okay! I can still help you find an editor that can help you!

TL;DR: working with a freelance editor can be really beneficial for your manuscript and I'd like to help you do that!

Hello writers, wordsmiths and storytellers! So, i

Hello writers, wordsmiths and storytellers!

So, if you follow the publishing industry at all, you've heard about the Harper Collins Union Strike. If you haven't, you can learn more following their account here: @hcpunion.

As someone who is invested in the industry (and has tried to break into it for years herself), this strike is really important to me, because it's addressing barriers that, on top of other factors, have played a role in preventing me from working in a field I've dreamed about; that made me become a freelance editor instead.
Yet those who are striking for fair wages, diversity protections and more, are living an unlivable reality, and one that hasn't ever *needed* to be a reality. Instead, it only exists because the exec team has allowed it to be, forcing all of those who actually do the work and make publishing run pay the price.

In solidarity to their fight and to help them be able to stay on the picket line, any clients that I book, from this moment forward and until the strike is ended, will have 50% of their total cost for my editorial services donated to the strike fund. It doesn't matter if you book a query letter or a full manuscript edit. Half will be going to the strike fund and I'll be posting updates for accountability.

Please share far and wide to help us support the Union! Plus, it's a win all the way around. You get quality edits on your work *and* feel good about supporting the strike fund.

If you'd rather donate directly to the strike, please do so here: https://linktr.ee/hcpunion

Hello writers, wordsmiths and storytellers!

So, it's been a sec. (Read = literal months. 😭)

How are you!? Tell me what projects you're working on in the comments, I'd love to know how your writing is going.

Life made it to where I wasn't able to take on client work for a few months. I've missed it a lot (and, full transparency, financially, I'm also feeling it).

I am SO excited to be able to dive back into my love of leveling up stories and encouraging writers along the way.

Have a NaNoWriMo project you want eyes on? Want to prepare your query materials so you're ready before the new year begins? If so, now is a great time to book!

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.” — J.R.R. Tolkien
