I acquire manuscripts from un-agented, self-published authors, evaluating submissions for narrative potential, audience fit, and market viability. I serve as project manager for each title, drafting contracts and managing invoices while hitting deadlines for publication goals. I deliver thoughtful, timely developmental and copyediting feedback, guiding authors through multiple rounds of structural and line-level revision. I act as authors’ primary point of contact, providing reliable and dedicated communication via Zoom, Slack, Microsoft Office, and Adobe Acrobat. I ensure alignment with CMOS and house style guides.
