About Writing Reading

Bunch of pencils

I'm involved in some exciting editing projects as president of Segullah Group, a non-profit organization that produces personal writings. I recently completed an anthology of poetry and personal essays written by and for LDS (Mormon) mothers, titled The Time of Your Life: Writings to Lift and Inspire Mothers of Young Children.

I'm also a freelance editor for hire, with professional experience in manuscript evaluation, developmental editing, copyediting, and proofreading. Currently I am doing contract work for Covenant Communications.

Publications

This anthology includes sixty-three personal essays written by mothers of children with Down syndrome, describing the gifts of respect, strength, delight, perspective, and love which their children have brought into their lives.
