Professional/Personal Overview
Does your writing focus around earth-based spirituality, holistic health, the paranormal, mythology, folklore or alternative spirituality? Do you write spiritual fiction, magical realism or African American culture? Are you working on a dissertation or thesis in the areas of art, Women's Studies, African American Studies, Anthropology, Comparative Religions, Environmental Education or Health? I have published five books and dozens of articles around these topics and I can help you get published too. I have worked as a development editor for several years working on dissertations and thesis.
