What Our Community Says

“I love knowing I helped an author believe in themselves, get clear on their message, and make their book the best it could be. It’s also been amazing working from home and being able to shape my own schedule.”

- Laura Kaiser


“My editorial business gave me freedom – to earn, create my own schedule, set big goals and plan for things I would never have been able to afford by waiting on the same paycheck every month. I work how I want to when I want to, and I do what I love every day. That is freedom.”

- Nadia Willie

“I highly recommend the course to anyone who is on the fence about an editing career or is unsure where to start.”


- Briana Morgan

About Your Instructor

My upcoming masterclass is built on my 20+ years in the publishing industry as a proofreader and editor. 

The lessons I’ll be teaching are what you need to know to start an editorial business with no prior experience.  


I started editing from scratch with no connections or professional experience, so I know what it’s like to be at the beginning with just a love of words. Many genres and 2000+ books later, I’ve discovered what it takes to turn a reading hobby into a thriving business or side hustle that you can run from anywhere, and on your terms. 


If you’re committed to making 2024 the year you finally make your editorial dream happen, I can’t wait to help you get there.

See you in class!
