About

Hello, I'm Sam.

EDITOR (WRITER IN DISGUISE)

When I was a kid, I remember spending my free time creating stories—if I wasn't already immersed in the latest novel release. That passion has followed me my entire life. I've spent most of my young adult life writing blog posts, writing and editing my own WIPs, creating social media captions, leaving book reviews, etc. All of this has been fun for me, and is a great creative outlet.

I prefer to read romance and fantasy, but I've been known to dabble in other genres when my interest is piqued. However, if you give me a book with a map, a glossary, and the promise of an adventure, I'm gone for the weekend.

In addition to all the professional development I've taken through ProWritingAid and the Editorial Freelancers Association (EFA), I also have a bachelor's degree in English, minor in History, as well as a certifciate in editing .

I crave creativity and organization, both things that are alike and yet vastly contest one another. I believe in second chances, have an unhealthy obsession with Fortnite, and can be found pounding a Red Bull almost every day.
