So, who am I?
Hi! My name is Ashley: Professionally certified editor and crop farmer. I love what I do, and I aspire to share that passion through my work.
For as long as I can remember, I've had my nose buried between the pages of a book. I love literature for what it is, what it can be, and what it does, so when it came time to choose what I wanted to do for the rest of my life, editing seemed a natural choice. I hold a graduate certificate in publishing, and I'm happier than ever. Working with authors is a dream come true, and every second I get to lose myself in their words is a second well-spent.
Authors spend copious amounts of time writing a book—my sole goal while editing is to polish that book until it reflects all the hard work and love poured into completing it. As an editor, I can’t promise perfection—it's unrealistic. I do, however, promise that I will use every tool at my disposal to be as thorough as I can.
Words are the best way to express oneself.
Let me help you refine that expression.
