Helping The Writing Process 

Writing is powerful, liberating, life-affirming; it is also frustrating, messy and a test to your willingness to let go of self-censorship, fear, self-imposed limitations, learned patterns of self-silencing . . . However you choose, or have been made, to experience the act of writing, two things at least are certain: 1. Writing is inevitable and 2. Writing doesn’t happen in a vacuum.

As a fellow writer who has gone through many, many phases, stages and layers of writing, I can help your process, offer comments, read your draft, edit and proofread, assist with revisions, provide fresh ways to look at your words and to approach your work.

About Me

I'm a professional copy editor and content reviewer / reviser / rewriter. For the last 20+ years, I've worked with all types of scholarly, academic, and creative writers, assisting with brainstorming, drafting, revising, editing and proofreading. I enjoy helping writers of all levels with the writing process, from brainstorming to publication and every stage in between.

I taught English at the University of Kansas for 13 years, where I also earned my doctorate in American Literature. I have extensive experience editing and proofreading fiction and non-fiction—including novels, essays and poetry—as well as revising scholarly papers, book-length manuscripts, class notes and course content. I've also helped numerous writers get their manuscripts ready for publication for the last 10 years.

As a native speaker of Spanish, I have 20 years of translation experience to and from Spanish, including fiction, non-fiction, poetry, scholarly, as well as technical, legal, medical and industrial writing. I have publications both in Spain and the US.

Teresa has been very professional and perfect to work with. She took the proof reading, editing, and formatting work completely and so I don’t even have to think about. I will use her perpetually on all the content I intend to publish. 5 stars.
