EDITOR/Author/researcher

Helena, MT, United States  
Get the candid input of a professional to improve the final product of whatever you write. I can help, whether you run a small press, are self published, a student, business person, or are preparing to send out a manuscript. In over twenty-five years in writing, editing and critiquing I have developed a good eye and ear, no matter the subject.

I truly enjoy working with words. This makes editing fun and not just a job. I have several years experience as a public speaker, and I know how to hold an audience. The right words are the key. Anytime I can help a writer's meaning bloom with more life, I feel good. Whether editing a student beginner or a seasoned pro, I always try to share my enchantment with language. My twenty years experience editing and writing for national publishers, includes work for Thomas Nelson, Harcourt Brace, Whiskey Creek Press, LUCENT (Gale Group) and others. I've been a stringer (photos and articles) for a national rodeo magazine, and also written historical articles and presentations for adults and youth.
