The publishing industry is always changing, but one thing stays the same...to succeed, a writer needs to show their best work. That's where Word Nerd comes in. I handle novels and short stories in a variety of genres, with special expertise in crime fiction (all sub-genres) and historical fiction, plus some romance and SF/fantasy. Current and past clients include indie authors, small and mid-size publishers, and game design companies. As a published writer myself, I understand the editing process from both sides and I respect each author's voice. I enjoy working with new writers as well as established ones, helping your work stand out in a crowded marketplace.
