Most of my published work has been as a ghostwriter/coauthor, although I have a few bylines of my own. My background in public education and my writing experience led to a co-written book with the CEO of an educational seminar and training company. That opened the door for me to work as an editor for educational experts who need books to support their speaking platforms. I consider my job more of a book doctor or (for those authors who want to learn how to write for publication) a “book mama.” E-mail Vie                    Visit Vie's Web site   Sarah M.

My background is in corporate communications (marketing and advertising). I've been proofreading and editing for over ten years. I do proofreading, copy editing, substantive editing, and developmental editing on a variety of subjects, including business communications, education, Christian spirituality, inspirational biography, and general fiction. I respect the effort it takes to write something for publication and enjoy helping someone put their best foot forward.

E-mail Marsha           Visit Marsha's Web site   Steve Hutson From a very young age, I always wanted to be a writer. But I didn't try to do anything professionally until 1998. Writing my book was a grueling process. After attending a conference and sitting at the feet of a couple of mentors, I began to get pretty good at it. After a few people in my church asked for my advice in their writing, I established my own editing service in the summer of 2005. Also, I serve as the assistant director of the Antelope Valley Christian Writers Conference.
