I’ll be diving into my three core values and beliefs, starting with my dedication to being your biggest supporter on your writing journey!
I fully believe in my heart that YOU ARE AMAZING! Not only have you written a novel, but you’re also thinking about taking another huge step by investing in professional editing. I know it’s scary to share your work with a stranger: can you trust them? What if they show it to somebody else? What if they hate it and rip it apart?
But you’re not giving up! You know your readers deserve the best and you want to do whatever it takes to give them a brilliant book.
That’s absolutely something worth celebrating. Goooooo you!
It means so much to me that authors trust me with their hard work and their dreams. I feel so incredibly lucky to get to read and edit wonderful people’s books every single day.
But you’re not here just to publish a book. You want to publish the best book you can. And I’m so here for that.
While I’ve learned a lot about writing and publishing through my MA in Novel Writing, the most important lesson I’ve taken away is this: Writing a novel is SO HARD. And that’s why I love you. You’re DOING IT!
That’s why I’m always shouting about my clients in my newsletters, on my blog, on social media. I celebrate their good news and I’m SO PROUD of them for every milestone they reach.
As your editor, I’ll always have my pompoms ready to wave for you.
