Meet the Editor
Hello! I'm Sarah, and I've been writing and exchanging stories with friends since I graduated from Mary Pope Osborne's Magic Tree House books in the first grade. Feedback and editing come naturally to me, and I enjoy nothing more than hyperfixating on how to word a selection of descriptive sentences or following the adventures of a friend's character.
​
To continue this passion, I earned my Bachelor’s in English Literature at the University of North Carolina Asheville in 2018; this included writing and defending a thesis prior to graduating. I’ve worked part-time as a website content reviewer and social media intern at Britton Law, PA, and have proofread and edited articles and manuscripts for Vitalink, CatalystGroup, and Britton Law, PA.
As a member of the Editorial Freelance Association (EFA), I regularly take part in courses to further hone my editing skills. My most recent completions are Working with Indie Authors, Editing Young Adult Fiction, and Editing for Conscious and Inclusive Language.
“Rewriting is as hard as composition is — that is, very hard work. But revising — fiddling and polishing — that’s gravy — I love it. I could do it forever. And the computer has made it such a breeze.”
~ Ursula Le Guin
