Most manuscripts don't fail because the writer lacks talent. They fail because the ideas are still tangled, the structure unclear, the argument incomplete, the emotional core buried under too many words.
That's where I come in.
What I offer:
- Developmental editing for nonfiction manuscripts at any stage, early draft to near-final
- Big-picture structural feedback on argument flow, chapter organization, and pacing
- Line-level editing that preserves your voice while sharpening clarity and impact
- Editorial letters that give you a clear, actionable path forward, not just a list of problems
- Sensitivity reading and feedback for memoirs and personal narratives handling difficult or emotionally complex material
- Collaboration with first-time authors who need a thought partner, not just a critic
Why I am the right fit:
I don't just mark up pages. I read your manuscript as a whole, looking for the throughline, the gaps, the moments where the reader might lose the thread. Then I tell you exactly what's working, what isn't, and why.
My background spans memoir, narrative nonfiction, self-help, and professional nonfiction. I understand that behind every manuscript is a person with something real to say, and my job is to help you say it in a way that lands.
Whether you are a first-time author trying to make sense of a rough draft, or an experienced writer who needs a sharp second eye before submission, the care I bring doesn't change.
Ready to get your manuscript where it needs to be? Message me with your genre, where you are in the writing process, and what's giving you the most trouble. Let's figure out what your book needs next.

***Owner of Ink Worthy Books, a full-service editorial and publication company providing cover-to-cover services and support to self-publishing authors of soulful nonfiction.***
This is my passion, my heart’s work, and what makes me a happy camper. It is not merely my “job.” With more than thirteen years of writing, editing, and publishing experience, I have built my business around helping self-motivated writers take their ideas all the way to publication and beyond. At Ink Worthy Books, we believe that every book has the power to change the world.
As a trained nonfiction book coach and developmental editor, I lead a group of skilled professionals who specialize in book editing, design, and marketing. This means that we can support an author’s entire project without risking quality due to the overworked eyeballs of one professional. This approach to self-publishing support saves you hours of searching for skilled pros in the world of one-and-done freelance giggers and alleviates the stress of managing all the details which go into publishing a book.
In addition to an array of community and coaching support options, IWB’s hands-on services fall into five categories:
Evaluate - Not certain what your story needs? We offer (free!) creative consult calls along with manuscript reviews to help you determine the best next step. This process saves writers both time and money because they leave with a clear idea of how to move their project forward and without having to guess.
Edit - We offer three types of editing, depending on the project’s need: developmental editing, line editing, and copy editing. Because these terms are sometimes used inconsistently in the industry, we will discuss your book’s needs in detail to ensure you are confident in what type of editing support you will be receiving.
Design - Our design team creates the high quality cover and interior files for all written formats (ebook, soft cover, and hardcover), all to the specification of the particular platform the writer is publishing on. This process also includes a final proofread, which ensures your book shines prior to publishing.
Publication Prep - The Ink Worthy Books team helps self-publishing authors manage ALL the loose ends that need attention to prepare to publish their book: writing your author bio, crafting the back cover description and Amazon description, pricing and ISBN support, author website creation, optimization of the book’s Amazon profile, and much more! Rest assured, we can help with every step of the way!
Marketing - We support writers in creating a marketing and promotion plan and materials to promote their book both leading up to and following publication.
If you are looking for a line or copy edit of your manuscript draft, please see my specialized profiles for more details on how I can help!
I look forward to connecting with you soon!
