Writer/Editor

I am a really strong editor/proofreader who writes both fiction and non-fiction. As a writer, editor, copy editor, and proofreader, I've done freelance work for twelve years through my company, Wynnpix Productions. I edited over 60 books of fiction and non-fiction for Booktrope Publishing in Seattle and over 100 for Action Wealth Publishing in London. I have helped dozens of independent writers with everything from line editing and proofreading to file formatting and setup on all publishing platforms. Find many of my books linked on my website, WynnpixProductions dot com. I also do ghostwriting and copy writing and I'm skilled at formatting and assisting authors in all genres self-publish on paperback and ebook platforms around the world. I specialize in assisting artists, experts, and authors tell unique stories and share their messages, particularly in the areas of health and wellness, business and non-profit management, self-actualization and spirituality, film and media, and all aspects of arts and culture. I also write contemporary and MG/YA fiction, available on Amazon, and just published a family history in 3 languages. I have been an entertainment and non-profit media arts executive for decades, focusing on narrative feature film and the professional development of writers, producers, and directors. I led a national media diversity organization and have extensive experience in fundraising and advocacy. As a former film business and non-profit executive/producer, I have researched/written/re-written tons of proposals, reports, business letters, resumes, non-fiction, speeches, grants, etc. plus published short stories. I have a master's degree from UCLA in semiotics, film and media.. My editing work includes fiction (romance, supernatural, action, crime, historical, contemporary; faeries, dragons, a few zombies, quite a few startling true FBI tales; international, domestic, literary); non-fiction memoir, biography, workbooks, self-help and inspirational, business and high-tech, film and all arts. I have clients all around the world, including many in the UK, Uganda, and the African diaspora. I'm a native English-language speaker with a BA in English from a top school. My portfolio includes links to dozens of published edited, proofed, and formatted books plus grant proposals, published interviews, my own YA fiction and other writing (academic or fiction), and available samples in many genres. I can do transcriptions, markups, direct corrections (recommended), or even a combination. Chicago style preferred; can do MLA and others.
