The Fiction Studio
A full-service editing and writing studio for people with ideas.
 
This company was founded on the notion that writing is a process that requires a sounding board, someone on whom to try out ideas, to develop ideas further, or to simply serve as a fresh set of eyes.  As the author of six books (with more on the way), I am more than aware that it is virtually impossible to have a clear vision of your own work – to know when something succeeds and when it just misses the mark.  Via The Fiction Studio, I can help you to see where your work needs to be bolstered, where a handful of critical adjustments can help it to deliver to its readership.  I can help you find the heart of your story, whether it is the story of your life, the story of your life’s work, or the story of your dreams.  

Beyond this, I can offer you invaluable information about the current state of the marketplace.  I am in regular contact with dozens of top-level professionals throughout the publishing industry and pay strict attention not only to what is working at the moment but to what is likely to be working in the near future.  And as someone who has authorized literally thousands of book deals over the years, I have a very clear sense of what it takes to get editors and publishers excited about your work.  Writers who work with me as a ghostwriter or collaborator appreciate the intimate knowledge I have of the publishing universe and how I can make the entire process easier for them.  Writers who have asked me to edit their work have benefited from my contacts and associations.  

This book marketplace is the toughest it has been in years.  It makes absolute sense for you to do everything you can to give yourself an edge before you enter it.  With me, you will receive the same kind of careful attention to writing that top-of-the-list authors receive from heads of houses.
