I have a comprehensive knowledge of bookcraft, plus an unusually diverse skillset, rooted in decades of hands-on publishing experience. I know what goes into writing and publishing a great nonfiction book. And having done most of them, I can't help but think on multiple levels while I'm working with you on your book. My experience includes: - author coaching- manuscript assessment and editorial direction- book proposal editorial direction and editing - developmental writing and rewriting- developmental editing - substantive/content/line editing - new book construction (compiling manuscripts from multiple source titles)- researching and securing text and artwork permissions- fact-checking- artwork editing, research, and management- copywriting- self-publishing support for authors- editorial direction and project management for publishers- collaborating with copywriters, marketing specialists and publicists, and book designersClients include individual authors and trade book publishers.
