Hi, I'm Lex!
I’ve been reading and writing for as long as I can remember. I was that kid that always had a book in hand, hid notebooks under my textbooks so I could write during class, and literally always dreamed of being a published author.
I majored in Writing at the University of Rhode Island and worked as a professional copywriter for many years after that—both for marketing agencies and on a freelance basis. I have partnered with people from a wide variety of industries, including real estate agents, carpenters, dentists, marketers, and more, to craft content that ranges from website copy to blogs to newsletters to emails ... and so much more.
In recent years, I’ve worked with dozens of writers from all over the world to help make their books the very best they can be. I have an obsession with words and line writing, but I specialize in overall developmental editing—plot, story and character arcs, worldbuilding, pacing, and more.
​
I am NOT a reader who’s going to blow through a manuscript and say, “Yes I loved it, maybe add some commas.” No way. I take my time reading, thinking, pondering, analyzing. It means you’re going to get honest feedback from me—if something isn’t working, I’m gonna let you know … and I’m gonna let you know why—but it also means I’m probably going to be your biggest cheerleader and hype-woman.
​
Every book has something to love. I spend time with my edits, so that means I find a lot to love about every book. And I don’t hold back (a lot of my inline comments are just me screaming about how much I love things). I’m honest, kind, and really do strive to be as unbiased and helpful as I can be.
​
I specialize in queer romance and genre fiction—including fantasy, sci fi, suspense/thriller, action/adventure, drama, and contemporary. Literary fiction might not be the best fit for me, but I’m also more than happy to analyze on a book-by-book basis, so if you’re not sure, reach out to me! I also offer a free sample edit.
