Hello!
Welcome to The Writer’s Assistant
*I will be on maternity leave from August 14 until sometime in October. Booking for October and November appointments will open Oct 1!*
I edit fiction manuscripts in all stages of development to help you refine, overhaul, tweak, fix, and perfect them.
My editor’s promise to you as a writer is that I will always be honest, respectful, and kind; that I will offer not only criticism but suggestions; that I will do my best to help your writing reach its potential; and that I will respect your style, voice, and opinions. It is your work, not mine, and your name that goes on the final product. I will tell you what I see and what I believe would do the most good, and you do with it what you will.
I’m passionate about what I do, and you can trust that I will be fully invested in your project once I take it on, because I love seeing great writing get even better.
Take a look around and drop me a line if you have any questions. I’d love to see what you’re working on!
-Jana
