About The Developmental editor

When you enjoy creative endeavors but also love problem-solving, finding the right career becomes tricky. Usually, jobs will fall more to one side than the other. So, in my early years, I tried to find something with a good mix of both. Because one thing I knew, I couldn’t do one without the other.

I went through several jobs, but none were a good fit. There was always something that never felt right about those positions. Something that I didn’t realize I needed in a job until I became a mom.

I needed to help others.

But what job was creative, solved problems, and helped people? At the time, I had no idea, so instead, I focused on raising my son and started writing in my free time.

Then, after a bit, I joined a writing group and helped other writers with their novels. That is when I found my perfect career.

Developmental editor.

I realized that I enjoyed editing more than I enjoyed writing. There is problem-solving: figuring out why a book is not working. There is creativity: brainstorming ways to fix the problems. But the best part is helping someone with their dream and helping them become a better writer.

I couldn’t think of a better career.
