Developmental editor for indie authors

What makes a story linger in a reader’s mind? What makes characters feel alive or a twist land just right?

WOR(L)DS & READERS: The Recipe of a Great Story isn’t a rulebook—it’s a collection of creative ingredients. Part craft reflection, part storytelling exploration, this book gathers insightful, bite-sized essays drawn from years of reading, writing, reviewing, and working alongside authors in the developmental editing process.

Rather than prescribing a single way to write, this book invites you into the creative kitchen. Like a cookbook for writers curious about what makes stories work, here you will find thoughts on narrative tools, character arcs, world-building, and emotional pacing.

Whether you're deep into your draft or dreaming up your next idea, this is a companion for any stage of the writing process. Take what speaks to you, leave what doesn’t, and add your own magic.

Writing is art, intuition, and craft seasoned to taste.

Let’s cook.
