I am an accomplished writer/editor, and I have adeptly managed the workflow of scores of titles for multiple publishing houses. I've worked with both fledgling and experienced authors along the way. While in different editorial capacities at AMG Publishers for over twenty years, the publishing house launched five different Bible study brands plus several fiction lines as well as Christian living books, study Bibles, and reference works. I have traveled extensively to writers conferences all over the United States, teaching workshops and helping writers with their craft. I live with my wife, Susan, and my son, Allen, in North Georgia and enjoy family time plus the scenic outdoor living my neck of the woods provides.

Most copyeditors are proficient at correcting grammar and spelling, but few have navigated hundreds of titles to publication. I can help with all aspects of both traditional and custom publishing, including editorial critiques, query letter and proposal coaching services, developmental editing, and copyediting. I also have ample experience with page layout and typesetting and have contacts who are experienced cover designers. If you’re serious about becoming a published author, I can help navigate your manuscript from concept to published book.
I have helped countless writers, many first-time authors, achieve their dreams. Some of these authors have appeared on best-seller lists and have been nominated for major awards.
I’ve watched novice writers transform into skilled authors with a backlist of books that have garnered high praise and sold in the thousands.
I want to help you achieve your writing goals!
But to fast-track your dream to be that great author, you may find you need some professional publishing help. I can provide the attention you need, whether it involves coaching or more hands-on editing.
