Hi! I’m Vicki. I’m a freelance editor, specializing in horror, dark fantasy, urban fantasy and romantic suspense. I’m passionate about understanding an author’s vision and helping refine it into the glorious story they always imagined.

I welcome self-publishing and first-time authors as well as traditionally published writers. Everyone can benefit from having a professional editor. After all, as Stephen King said, “Only God gets it right the first time.”

I provide free sample edits of up to 2500 words, so that we can see whether we work well together.
