I am a thoughtful, patient, discreet freelance book and screenplay editor working with writers of all levels. Writers who have agents, those who don't, writers who have sold books to publishers, and many who hope to. I've helped writers develop their ideas and shape them into a book or proposal, ghost written material and worked on many screenplays, too.
Just a few of the book projects I've worked on are: "The Art of Social War: A Novel" by Jodi Wing (Harper Paperbacks); "Finding Angela Shelton" by Angela Shelton (Meredith Books); "The Lost Diary of Don Juan" by Douglas Carlton Abrams (Atria Books); "Pilate's Wife" by Antoinette May (Wm. Morrow); "Ill-Equipped for a Life of Sex" by Jennifer Lehr, (ReganBooks); "Family Trust" by Amanda Brown, author of "Legally Blonde" (Dutton); "Losing Julia" by Jonathan Hull (Delacorte); "The Reunion" by Curt Autry, a thriller (Poisoned Pen Press, Ballantine).
Before becoming an editor, I was a feature film and television development executive for twenty years working for: Wind Dancer Films, Fine Line Features, The Zanuck Company and The Samuel Goldwyn Company, finding material for films and helping to develop them into screenplays. I worked on: "Rush", "Driving Miss Daisy", "Rich in Love", "Wild Bill", "Love! Valour! Compassion!", "Mystic Pizza", "Consuming Passions", among others. The TV MOW's I worked on from development through production are: "Prisoner Without A Name, Cell Without A Number," "The Royal Romance of Charles and Diana" and "Playing For Time".
I've written book reviews for Time Out Magazine and Barnes and Noble's Discover New Writer Series newsletter. My short stories and personal essays have been published in: New York House Magazine: Feb. 2004; Jan. 2005; Feb. 2006; April 2009; Prima Materia, Mars Hill Review, The Madison Review, and Fine Print. I co-wrote three feature film screenplays and have been awarded residencies to a number of artist colonies for my writing including: The MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, Helene Wurlitzer Foundation, The Vermont Studio Center, Fundacion Valpairiso in Spain, and The Millay Colony.
I'm a member of Women's Media Group and Editorial Freelancers Association.
