I have been working as a freelance editor for publishers, literary agencies, and independent authors since 2000. This website is my personal portfolio.

I own The Sharper Quill, a writing consultancy that  specializes in helping independent authors write and publish books, dissertations, research, and novels. We help authors through any stage of the writing process including development, all types of editing, proofreading, book design, and proposal writing.





Let's begin a conversation today about editing or proofreading your novel, nonfiction, or academic manuscript.

Whatever you choose, I will go the extra miles to make your book a success.
