Whisler Edits
I’m a developmental editor and book coach who specializes in working with writers of fantasy novels. Whether you intend to self-publish or publish traditionally, I will work to ensure your story has a “beating heart”—a theme or relevance that draws readers in and resonates deep within them. I aim to build honest, lasting relationships with writers who want their novels to reach their full potential.
Story construction has always fascinated me. After graduating summa cum laude in 2010 with a B.A. in English Education, I taught English and creative writing for six years. Currently, I co-organize a writing critique group and am a member of the Editorial Freelancers Association in addition to PEN.
“Nicole's first editing and big-picture report blew me away. Her talent for reviewing a story goes beyond practice and schooling. There is a level of insightfulness that strikes me as innate.” -Barbara L., Iowa

Sage Editing
Shannon (they/she) is a native Virginian/current North Carolinian resident. They have been writing and editing in one way or another since sixth grade, but they've had a love of words since they were four years old. Growing up with a mother who constantly read to them, and with shows like Reading Rainbow and Sesame Street, it's no wonder they fell in love with the English language, how it works, and the ways it can be used to tell a myriad of stories across both fiction and nonfiction.

I have been freelancing as a nonfiction book editor for more than twenty years, for both university and trade presses as well as individual authors. I work as a developmental editor, copyeditor, line editor, and substantive editor. I also edit academic journal articles as well as those aimed at a more general audience – in my previous incarnation I was a newspaper editor at metro dailies, including Newsday and the San Jose Mercury News. Thanks to my journalism training, I am fast, have a reverence for deadlines (I have a clock in my head), and an eagle eye for problems—authors marvel at my ability to catch discrepancies, inconsistencies, and redundancies often hundreds of pages apart. My motto is “Never give a critic a free lunch.”
