About me

Hi, I'm sarah!

Like so many of us in the literary world, I've loved reading and writing since I was old enough to do so. And editing? Well, for me, that's the icing on top of the big, bookish cake. There's something so satisfying about poring over a manuscript, word by word, and finding ways to help my client. When copy leaves my desk, the author can rest assured that a reader won't catch misspellings or get caught up in awkward language; there will only be a great story to get sucked into.

Speaking of great stories, the world needs to hear yours. Keeping your voice and vision intact is important to me, so I use gentle and helpful critique to amplify your creative expression. When your work leaves my desk, it's still your work, but it's also been edited to meet the professional standards that readers expect.

Whether you intend to self-publish, query an agent, or submit clean copy to your publisher, I'm here for you. Let's do this thing!
