The written word is powerful. It can comfort, challenge, and inspire. It can make us laugh and bring us to tears. It can teach, take us on an adventure, and help us dream.
The written word is tangible. People can take it with them wherever they go. They can read your words when they need a chuckle, an escape, or a pick-me-up during a hard day.
But even skilled writers often need a little help in bringing out the best in their work. Once it’s in print and shared with the public, it’s too late to make changes.
As writers, we become attached to our stories and characters. It can be difficult to have our hard work evaluated. Although I promise to be honest, I also promise to treat you and your work with respect. My desire is to partner with you in achieving satisfying results and build an ongoing, professional relationship.
