Polished manuscripts for clients worldwide
For over two decades I have been a professional author, editor, and creative writing instructor in the children's book industry. My own thirty-six award-winning books for children and teens are published in many countries and languages. I have worked with many other writers via on-line sites, my web site, and the Institute of Children's Literature in the USA where I have been an instructor for nineteen years.
I love the creative excitement of working on manuscripts, and bring a synergy of creative and analytical skills to my editing. My BA in English, and my Bachelor of Education, enable me to provide clients with detailed critique letters that teach them writing skills and give them guidelines for making revisions.
I enjoy mentoring writers as they develop their initial ideas into outlines, into first drafts, and into drafts ready for publication. A polished manuscript is a thing of beauty!
