JumpStart Creative Solutions

My specialty is in taking the jigsaw puzzle of a client’s idea, analyzing the market competition, and then strategically turning their story into a compelling and marketable book that targets their specific goals, whether those are brand building, public speaking, or book sales. I both ghost and content edit, with a flexible approach to creation based on that particular client’s work and development style. I have worked with celebrities, sports figures, and others, tailoring my writing/editing approach to match their voice.
