Why Work with Me?
Hello! I’m Lindsey. I specialize in speculative fiction, and I love working with independent authors!
It can be overwhelming and lonely at times being an indie writer. You pour your soul into a story, crafting it with emotion, vulnerability, and experience. You invested months or years of your life. You imagine the day it’s in readers’ hands. Will it affect them? Will they remember it?
I’m here to ensure your story has the impact and professionalism it deserves. You’re not alone. I’ll support your creative vision and help you take your story to the next level.
When you work with me, you’re not working with an emotionally-vacant AI or a random subcontractor in an editing company. You’ll have a teammate who cares about your journey and is dedicated to helping your book succeed.
