ABout me
I LOVE to read. I take time to read every day. Reading is the escape I need from my 3, very busy, little boys. As my reading list has grown, I have stumbled onto many self-published authors. While reading these authors, I have noticed several errors in their writing. The errors are distracting and have caused me to put a book down because I just couldn't get past the mistakes. One afternoon, I broke down and emailed one of the authors because her story
line was so good, but the writing was such a mess. I asked her if she would
consider letting me have a go at editing her book. She agreed. Within a few
days I sent it back to her. She had already run it through one proofreader and
was embarrassed by the amount of errors that I found. I am now doing all of her
books. That is how I got my start in editing. I am now working with several authors and continue to get referrals. I love watching a rough draft morph into a published book.
Other than reading, I spend my days being a mom, cook, chauffeur, maid, and housekeeper. My family spends a lot of time outdoors, biking, camping, fishing, and hunting. We live in a suburb of the Philadelphia area and are able to enjoy everything that the area has to offer. I like thunderstorms, campfires, Italian food, and the colors pink and green. I listen to all types of music and enjoy all types of movies. Christmas is my favorite holiday, though Halloween is a close second. Who doesn't like scaring the neighborhood kids and eating leftover candy??
I do not write. I envy those that can. I also cannot edit my own writing. It is frustrating, and I know that you all know the feeling.
I am not a faceless organization or company. I am just a person with a talent. I truly want to develop a relationship with my authors. I want you to feel comfortable with me and my work so that you keep coming back.
