Hi, I’m Tanya 👋🏻

I’m a book editor, translator, educator, and literary omnivore. I've been in publishing for over twenty years and love this industry to bits.

I work with authors and publishers, editing and translating SFF, horror, contemporary realism, memoir, interactive fiction, and graphic novels.

I support editors and writers one on one, and teach in a bunch of places, including the Editorial Freelancers Association and Emerson College's MFA in Popular Fiction program. 

It has been suggested that I read too much for my own good. This might be true.

Let's stay in touch!

"The class materials help you focus on your ideal customer base with actionable steps to making your services of value to such customers."

"Tanya's Editing Memoir course helped me see, through hands-on exercises and discussions, the special care that must be taken when working with a memoir author." 
"Working through the exercises made me excited to grow my business." 
"Tanya asks all the right questions, pushes you to dream big, and helps you develop an actual plan to *make things happen.*"
