Turning a dissertation into a book is more than an edit – it’s a transformation process. I work with early career researchers to reframe, restructure, and refine their theses into publishable monographs that speak to broader audiences and meet the expectations of academic publishers.

What we’ll work on

This process might involve cutting or combining chapters, clarifying your argument, strengthening your narrative arc, or reworking your introduction and conclusion. We’ll look at what to keep, what to let go of, and how to shape the manuscript into something coherent, compelling, and book-worthy.

Where I come in

Whether you're at the very beginning of this transition or partway through, I bring calm, strategic editorial support – helping you rethink your work with clarity, purpose, and forward momentum. The result is a book that reflects your thinking at its best – coherent, compelling, and ready for review.

Whether you're working on a journal article or a book manuscript, the revise and resubmit stage can be one of the most challenging parts of the academic publishing process. Reviewer feedback is often vague, contradictory, or overwhelming – and it’s not always clear how to respond without compromising your argument.

What we’ll work on
I help you make sense of reviewer comments, clarify what’s being asked, and develop a revision strategy that balances responsiveness with integrity. This might include strengthening your argument, restructuring key sections, rewriting specific passages, or preparing a detailed response letter.

Where I come in
I bring clear, steady editorial support to what can feel like a high-pressure process – helping you respond with clarity and confidence while staying true to your scholarly voice. The goal is a stronger, more focused manuscript – and a submission you feel good about.

Some projects need more than a quick review or a one-off structural check – they need sustained, strategic editorial support. Whether you’re shaping a book manuscript over time, putting together a multi-author volume, or reworking a project that has lost momentum, I work with academic authors to bring clarity, direction, and consistency to complex writing.

What we’ll work on
This kind of support might include ongoing structural feedback, chapter-level development, narrative cohesion, pacing, and guidance on key transitions and arguments. We’ll keep the big picture in view while addressing the finer details that help your work hold together.

Where I come in
I offer long-range, steady editorial guidance – helping you shape your manuscript as it evolves, stay connected to your core ideas, and maintain momentum through the inevitable ups and downs of longform academic writing.
