“Trinity's thoughtful advice and encouragement has been a catalyst in the process of drafting my first novel. Before working with Trinity, I was full of anxiety and self-doubt about whether I could truly finish a full manuscript. But after just a few weeks of sessions with her, I hit a significant milestone in my project. "

“Her skill as a developmental editor was obvious from the start but she is also eager to assist with creative or writing practices, to speak with you about your goals and habits. Most of all, I feel absolutely lucky to be able to speak to her about my work. She cares about my story and wants it to succeed.”

Graphic descriptions of violence affect me deeply and remain with me for a long time. Therefore, I choose not to work on manuscripts that include graphic or gratuitous violence, graphic descriptions of sexual violence, any kind of abuse or sexual assault of a child, and domestic or partner abuse.
However, I realize that life is full of traumas that are explored or exorcised through art, and I also love a good murder mystery. Depending on how it’s handled, I may be all right regarding certain situations, so I’m open to a conversation.
