At the Editor’s Margin, editing is my craft.

Whether you need help structuring a big idea, refining details, or simply finding rhythm in your words, you can count on me. I help sharpen your message and deliver your ideas in your voice.

I offer editing for any stage of writing, whether you need a professional evaluation, developmental ideas, detail-focused copyediting, or proofreading.

My specialty is spiritual fiction and non-fiction (from children’s books and fantasy, to dissertations and educational material). However, I have experience in a variety of other genres, including technical documents, self-help books, and lyrical prose.

Reach out with your idea! Together, let’s make every word count.
