Making Your Words Shine
I help authors polish their manuscripts so that their stories can inspire, inform, and truly connect with readers.
BASED IN ONTARIO
Specializing in Beta Reading, Copy Editing, and Proofreading
I provide editing services to help authors refine their manuscripts with clarity and confidence. While I’ve worked across genres, I especially enjoy supporting nonfiction writers—memoirs, self-help, and personal growth books that aim to inspire and guide readers.
Whatever your project, my goal is to ensure your words resonate, your message shines, and your book leaves a lasting impact.

About Me
As a French and classroom teacher, I was constantly helping my students make their writing clearer and more engaging. There was nothing I liked more than taking my red pen to paper to transform good writers into better writers.
Fast forward more than thirty years and I find myself at a different desk enjoying the same tasks for writers around the globe. There is true excitement in meeting new authors and diving into their projects—I have learned so much from reading and editing their works.
When it is time for a stretch, you can find me reading four books at a time, hiking, riding my cruiser bike, or paddling my kayak with my husband. With any luck, we will have a canine friend joining us very soon.
