about me

Picture
Pleased to meet you! My name is Amanda DeBord. I'm a writer and an editor.

I've been editing professionally for a little more than fiction years.  I've got a B.A. in English writing (and another in philosophy, if you're spoiling for an argument).  I specialize in fiction editing, but I've done work for lawyers, academics, publishing companies, and students. 

I love working with, and thinking about, words. I'm fascinated by how 26 symbols and a few other marks can tell a story that's never been heard before. The thing I love most about editing, though, is the collaboration. I believe that it's impossible for even the most skilled writer to remove herself from her story enough to understand the impact it's making on her readers. That's where I come in. I work closely with my authors to tease out their visions and to help them pour that out onto the page.

Whether you need a full overhaul of your plot or some simple proofreading, I'm honored to help you craft your words into the best they can be.
