Bobbi Beatty

Are you looking for experience? Education? Passion and compassion? You’ve come to the right place.

I have over a decade of experience editing and ghostwriting children’s books, young adult and adult fiction, fantasy, and creative nonfiction; poetry; self-help; and leadership manuscripts. My clients have gone on to win contests and find success in both traditional and self-publishing. More importantly, we forge strong relationships and mutual respect along the way.

As a former managing editor with a degree in professional editing and writing, I’ll help you bring your story to life and work with you to create the quality story of your dreams, whether you choose self-publishing or traditional publishing. Once your story is alive and memorable, I’ll polish it until it shines. Over a decade of experience guarantees you’ll receive quality results in all levels of editing: substantive, structural, stylistic, and copy editing plus proofreading. I can also guide you on the road to self-publishing.

But wait! 

I’m not done yet. My experience also spans a variety of technical fields including engineering, environmental sciences, academia, public administration, IT, and business. My specializations include reports, proposals, theses, speeches, presentations, and more, so if you have a technical or academic document that needs my help, you’ve come to the right place.

And there’s more…

In addition, I have over ten years of experience as a professional writer and possess a degree in professional writing, so I can help you with all your content needs including ghostwriting, web content, blogs, and more. Because I, too, am a writer, I understand where you’re coming from. I know what it is to cherish your words and to have an editor mercilessly cut them, so I work with you until we create something together that you’re pleased with and proud of.
