We’re a firm founded by women for women+ offering editorial services to those seeking to self-publish and create professional-quality books on their own terms.
With over 50 years combined experience as professional editors and working writers, we’ve sat on both sides of the table. We know what it is to edit and be edited. We understand the emotional complexities of putting one’s heart and soul on paper and then handing it over to a stranger to be analyzed and critiqued. It can be a deeply personal and vulnerable experience. Our goal is simple: constructive thoughts and professional insight that elevate your work and make you shine.
From proposal to polishing to publishing, let’s tell your story.
A working writer for twenty years, Morgan became founding entertainment editor at BlogHer.com in 2011 before stepping out on her own as the owner and editor in chief of The818.com, a family lifestyle site, eventually scaling to a staff of six. In 2014, she was recruited to co-found BuzzFeed Parents, quickly ascending to the role of senior editor, creating and shepherding content that reached over a billion users. While at BuzzFeed, Morgan immersed herself in the fundamentals of what makes readers tick––or better yet––share. In 2018, a recruiter threw Morgan another curveball with an offer to join Silicon Valley’s publishing disruptor, Callisto Media, where she had the opportunity to tap into her career experience and join the movement to adapt the book industry for the 21st century. Since that time, she has conceptualized, edited, and project managed over 30 titles, all boasting five-star reviews, including two best sellers.
