About this Gig
I offer thoughtful, professional feedback on your poetry just like you'd receive in a university-level workshop.
With a B.A. and M.A. in English (my thesis focused on poetry), 12 years as a university English professor, and experience as a newspaper editor, I bring both literary insight and technical skill to every line I review.
Each edit includes:
- ️ Line-by-line feedback on word choice, clarity, and rhythm
- ️ Comments on line breaks, stanza structure, tone, and emotional flow
- ️ One revision round for clarification or light adjustments
- ️ An editorial note (Standard and Premium)
Whether you're preparing a single poem or polishing a chapbook, Ill help you refine your workwithout ever erasing your voice.
All poems are treated with respect, care, and confidentiality. Lets bring your writing to its full potential.

FAQ
What kinds of poetry do you edit?
I work with all styles—free verse, formal, narrative, lyric, experimental, and more. Whether you're a new poet or preparing for publication, I can help.
How many revisions are included?
One revision round is included in all packages. This covers clarification or light edits based on questions. Full re-edits of revised drafts can be purchased as an add-on.
What if my poems are very personal?
All work is treated with respect and confidentiality. I approach poetry as a collaborative craft—not a critique session.
Can you help with rhythm or structure?
Yes. I can offer feedback on meter, line breaks, flow, and form depending on your goals.
Will you change all of my words so it’s no longer my poem?
Absolutely not. You are the artist—this is your work. I won’t rewrite your poem or override your voice. My role is to guide you through the revision process with suggestions that help you improve rhythm, clarity, and emotional impact—while staying true to your original intent.
Can you rewrite my poem?
I can rewrite your poem for private or educational use, but I do not offer ghostwriting for contests, publication, or use under your name. If you’d like a full rewrite for personal development, please contact me first for a custom offer.
