I have written a book about creative women, edited an anthology about scars, and written longform and flash nonfiction on topics including infant loss, medical trauma, motherhood, disability, friendship, and preserving beets. I also love interviewing female writers about their work.
My recent creative nonfiction can be found in The Sun, HuffPost Personal, The Citron Review, Brevity Blog, and Article Club podcast. My essays have been named Notable in The Best American Essays and nominated for a Pushcart Prize. You can find out more about my writing here.
Need an experienced editor or creative mentor?
Experience editing more than 50 books and essays by hundreds of writers at all levels of nonfiction and children’s book writing as well as more than 15 years as publisher at a small press informs me as I work energetically and thoughtfully.
The editorial relationship requires enormous trust, and I pride myself on treating writers, their work, and their deadlines with deep respect. Whether a writer seeks a general conversation about a body of work, direction on a specific element of a personal essay, line edits for a memoir in its final stages, deadlines or staying accountable, advice about how to create an anthology, or advice regarding where to submit a children's book, or anything in between, I feel honored to be a trusted partner in the process.
