I'm an editor and typesetter. Does it make me odd that I love commas and ellipses? I primarily do line editing, copyedit ING, and proofreading. I also love typesetting and formatting even though looking for stacks and ladders and spacey lines is a dying art. I received my BA in English, creative writing. While at school, I learned the ins and outs of editing and publishing with the student journal, and since then I've edited and formatted freelance and with many new and experienced authors and several long-term clients. I also currently edit and format for Splinter Press.

I am a published author using the pen names Ariel Paiement and Atlas A. Rose. Please note! The second pen name is not to be confused with Atlas Rose, a different author who writes erotica/steamy romances. I write philosophical/historical fiction under Atlas A. Rose, and the middle initial is crucial if you're trying to view examples of that work on Amazon or Goodreads. The examples of these works are available on the profile to make it easier to avoid the need to search all over for me on Amazon, but I like to point this out up front so those seeking to hire a ghostwriter are not confused about what I do and don't write.

Proofreading is practically a hobby for me. Typos jump out at me as I read, and I catch myself re-writing sentences in my head. That sounds completely nerdy, but my weird tendencies can work to your advantage! Since I actually enjoy corralling those pesky commas, let me be an extra pair of eyes on your work. I’d love to help you produce quality, error-free content so your intended audience can read without distractions. I’d be happy to engage in back and forth conversation about your piece or to just go ahead and make the corrections, if you prefer. I can edit for organization and clarity, and for grammar and typos. I have an encouraging...

So, you've had that book in mind for years now but never quite gotten around to it. You have a story to tell, or knowledge to share. Writing a book is a task that you don't have the time or patience for, yet you know that what you have to offer is valuable. That's where I come in. I'm a ghostwriter with several years of experience and 25+ books, some of which are published under my own name, some of which are ghostwritten for my awesome clients, and some of which I simply helped get "past the finish line" when the author needed some assistance. I help with shorter pieces too, including blog content, articles, reports and short stories....
