Short Fiction & Poetry

A detailed black-and-white illustration of a young man sitting in a study room with bookshelves, a fireplace, and a curtain. The man is holding a book in one hand and a staff or rod in the other, with a dog nearby.

For texts to be submitted to competitions, magazines and open calls. There is no limit on the poetry lines, but for short fiction, this counts as texts under the limit of 30 pages (which will be determined by pasting it into a google doc, double spaced, size 12, Times New Roman).

A black and white illustration of a woman lying on a bed with an open book and a dog at her feet, while a man in a coat peeks out from behind a door in a room with arched window and shelves.

Non Fiction

Despite my logo saying otherwise, I do dabble in non-fiction editing (though keep in mind it is not my expertise). This will need to be discussed in depth should you want me to edit your non-fiction. Most notably, not to expect fact-checks. This will be purely vocabulary, sentence structures, punctuation, grammar, etc.

A man in a jacket stands at a desk with toy manufacturing machines, surrounded by shelves of books labeled poetry, science, history, and other subjects, with a bust of a woman on a pedestal and a whimsical creature on top of the shelves.
Black and white illustration of a classical library with a bookshelf filled with books, a telescope, an open book, a candelabra, flowers, and various decorative objects. There are busts and statues, including one with a mirror, and a window letting in light.

“The world was to me a secret which I desired to divine. Curiosity, earnest research to learn the hidden laws of nature, gladness akin to rapture, as they were unfolded to me, are among the earliest sensations I can remember.”

Frankenstein - Mary Shelley
