Working with words since 2006

Welcome! If you're looking for an experienced nonfiction book coach, editor, writer, or ghostwriter, you've come to the right place.

Since launching my freelance business in 2006, I've worked on hundreds of 
book-length manuscripts at all stages of the book writing journey, from creation of the original concept to polishing the language line by line to ensuring accuracy in every letter and comma. Though I've had my hand in books on everything from real estate investment to parenting, my favorite genres include biography, memoir,  education, how-to, and self-help.
      
​​
My own writing credits include children's biographies on Malcolm X and Pocahontas, an award-winning book on economies around the world, and a comprehensive resource for high school student-athletes. 

My goal is to help you organize, polish, and perfect your words so you can publish the best book possible. Contact me to discuss your project.

​
​​​"Please know how impressed I am with your level of expertise and attention to detail. . . . If your ears ring today, it's because I'm telling one of my friends how blessed I am to have you working on my behalf."

—Derek Cameron Phoenix, author
