The editorial staff work with a wide spectrum of authors in every stage of manuscript preparation, ranging from those taking the first step in their writing career, all the way up to bestselling authors who are often referred through major publishing imprints and literary agencies.
Andrea has extensive experience editing in a multitude of genres and levels. Many of our clients have continued on to achieve successful careers in the publishing industry. Our mission as editors is to provide supportive, honest, and knowledgeable feedback on your book to help strengthen it, while also preserving your voice and vision. Ultimately, we want authors to enter the revision process feeling inspired, confident, encouraged, and motivated about their work—utilizing our professional, quality edits to guide them along the way.
NOTE: We do not offer literary representation to authors that we have worked with
privately or in a consulting capacity, as this could present a conflict of interest.
