One hour of editing

“Steve really is something of a secret weapon. Right off the bat, he gets what your story is trying to do and unblurs what potential strengths might be stuck in the peripheral. His edits are succinct, thoughtful, and completely in tune with your creative voice. Steve 100% puts the spark back in an author’s relationship with their fiction.”

“Steven is a natural editor. He will carefully pick out the moments in your writing that are almost there but need a little prodding, without sacrificing your unique voice. At the same time he will look at the work holistically, and reveal to you where its skeleton is missing limbs.”

“Steven is an expert editor with an eye for clarity and precision. But more than just editing, I’d consider steven a “coach” or story whisperer. Steven uncovers opportunities that a writer might not see. I hired Steven to whip a submission into shape and he did that, but I’m also more energized and inspired to work on the manuscript than I have been in a long time—thanks to Steven’s talent and good heart. There are a lot of editors out there, Steven offers something extraordinary.”

“Steven’s approach is professional, constructive, and incisive. His feedback is thorough and clearly communicated. He helped me improve my poetry MS in specific lines as well as in the themes and repeated images throughout. Hire him to help your work shine!!”

“i never submit prose without having steven edit it first! we have been each other’s editors for years now, & he always has 1,000 suggestions to make your work better.”
