About Me

With over 16 years of professional editing experience in businesses, nonprofits, and publishing, I specialize in helping authors craft manuscripts that connect with readers. I’ve worked on over 25 books to date and genuinely love helping other authors succeed. Books are my passion through and through! My goal is to elevate your writing with clarity, structure, and professional polish.

Helping Authors Build Better Books—and Stronger Author Businesses

Writing a book is only the beginning.

Whether you're just starting your manuscript, preparing for publication, or looking to grow your readership, I'll help you navigate the publishing process with practical guidance based on real-world experience.

As the founder of Fascinate Books, I've worked with more than 25 books and built my own award-winning children's publishing brand from the ground up. My goal is to help authors avoid costly mistakes, make confident decisions, and create books they're proud to share.
