I've been writing romance professionally for ten years specializing in contemporary, romantic suspense, Western, and paranormal romance. I understand the importance of varied, multi-level plots that tie everything up with a big bow at the end, but leave the readers wanting more in a series. I'm experienced in creating one-of-a-kind plots that are character driven or focus on external forces that are working against our hero and heroine. All of my projects include a custom detailed plot outline, character dossier, and one round of revisions as well as your manuscript. I've been an acquisitions editor for over seven years, a professional editor with multiple publishing companies, interned at a publishing company for two years, and I carry a BA in English as well as a minor in Creative Writing from McDaniel College. Which means I'm at the forefront in understanding branding as well as your reader's mindset from several perspectives. Both as a freelance business owner, an author who's worked in a publishing and as an avid romance reader.
