guiding principles:

A Journey of Refinement: Your Manuscript

Good editorial feedback highlights your work's greatest strengths, identifies crucial areas for development, and suggests routes toward improvement. I put at your service my well-seasoned compositional skills and acute attention to detail.

A Journey of Connection: Your Audience

I endeavor to firmly grasp not only what you are trying to say but how audiences may receive it (and how you want them to receive it). We will engage in editorial dialogue to improve the odds that your yearned-for meeting with readers goes well on the bridge of communication. I also look for opportunities to offer insights that will help to deepen your mastery of the elements of written communication.

A Journey of Dependability: Your Editor

You have my admiration, respect, and enthusiasm for committing to your writing path. I seek to honor your priorities and your time by working together to define clear expectations and objectives. Then I focus on delivering. I also commit to open and timely communication, since surprises sometimes happen. In short, as your creative fellow traveler, I support you, to the best of my abilities, in this creative stage of your creative journey.

A Journey of Discovery: You

Above all, I desire to inspire you to more deeply encounter yourself as a creative person. Writing is rarely just writing; it follows that your best editorial experience takes you beyond technicalities. As appropriate, I will seek to encourage you to explore the inner you along with the outside world you are engaging through words.
