editing

provides feedback & support from draft 1 to 100.

On the surface, writing might seem like an exclusively solo endeavor. I believe in the depths of the work and often it takes a village to usher our visions into light. Writing is work. Final products do not reveal the scaffolding nor the evolution of a piece. Revising your own work can often feel intimidating, or even like you have hit a dead end. All on its own, one could view editing as an artform–one which requires practice. I’m here to help you get that muscle stronger. Whether you have a single poem or an entire collection, I provide thorough, line-by-line feedback from first glance to final version.

I work with writers of all skill levels and background–from the just-getting-started to the seasoned and published.

current rate(s): $15 per poem; email for rates on larger and/or more unique projects.

blurbs & reviews

Do you have a complete collection that is in need of a blurb, whether for media or back-of-the-cover purchases? One of my favorite things is to find creative ways to summarize a body of work beyond appearance and/or resume.

Do you need a review for potential promotion and/or media? Please get in touch. Happy to read & review for personal use, public consumption, and/or media(think Goodreads).

readings / workshops / events

Open to help promote and participate in events–whether festival work or busking, classroom workshops or curriculum brainstorming.
