The above packages are configured with typical page and word counts for poetry and hybrid texts in mind. If you are interested in booking a consultation for an academic or prose manuscript, I’d also be happy to work with you. Please query me.

You may use the contact form on my “About" page to introduce yourself and your project. After I review your initial communication, I will contact you to establish a consultation timeline. No feedback will be delivered until payment is received. I look forward to hearing from you.

Note: I reserve the right to refuse review of work that is racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, or intentionally or unintentionally harmful or derogatory. Please preface work that is potentially triggering with an appropriate warning in the email that accompanies your submission.

Editorial Philosophy

In all of my editorial projects, creative or professional, I begin with a promise to the project itself, an acknowledgement of the initial presentation and order of thought by the writing as sent, as submitted. While I believe strongly in the importance of revision, I also trust in the mind’s pioneering instincts, of its more primitive expressions. Seeking a balance between these two worlds—the one infused by the power of the immediate voice and the one concerned with polish (either for accessibility or marketability concerns)—is my imperative and is what I consider to be most crucial in an editor-writer relationship.
