I'm an editor and typesetter. Does it make me odd that I love commas and ellipses? I primarily do line editing, copyediting, 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.

As an editor and writer, I don’t spend all my time indoors, staring at a computer screen. That’s because I believe we gain the best ideas from experience.
