I support romance writers who are in need of an outside perspective to help their story reach its fullest potential.

Okay, here's a truth:

Being a writer is scary!

It can be isolating and vulnerable, powerful and transformative. Being a romance writer is extra, because that look happens and you know this person is judging you- despite romance being the top selling genre in publishing! You want a polished story. You want realistic characters, and well crafted plot. And, pesky reality, you need to eliminate spelling, punctuation, and word use errors. What you need is a fresh perspective to help you grow your story to its best self.

You deserve

an editor who is well-versed in the romance genre in all its
wonderful depth and diversity.

You need an editor who respects and values the power of story. You deserve someone who is truly attentive to your goals, your characters and where their journey leads them. You want someone who is going to help your story reach both its fullest potential and its maximum target audience.
