A little bit

ABOUT THE EDITOR

Heather | Book Realm Revisions

I work with publishers like Wizards of the Coast, Elder Glade Publishing, Plus One Exp/Alchemical Ink, and Manuscripts as well as independent authors and businesses. I am partnered with StoryverseStream and Hyper Digital Marketing. I edited the 2022 Hugo Award nominee, Seanan McGuire's Tangles in the short story category and 2025 International Impact Book Award winner Humble Dreams: Pragmatic Leadership Lessons from African Women by Meriem Boudjadja.

​

When I am not reading or editing, I am an avid gamer and gardener. I also dabble in journaling, yoga, rock climbing, mini-painting, and baking. When I can, I indulge my wanderlust and visit as many historical sites, museums, gardens, and local haunts as possible with my husband, tiny gremlin child, and dog.

I live in the Great Lakes State of Michigan. I volunteer as the President for the Editors Tea Club and I am a member of the ACES: The Society of Editing. I am the former Co-Coordinator for the Michigan chapter of the Editorial Freelancers Association.

EXPERIENCE

my personal

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Writing and Rhetoric with a minor in Business from Oakland University, MI. I started my career in the automotive industry and had spent the last five years as a Technical Editor working with engineers, attorneys, and executives while running Book Realm Revisions, LLC.

​

What started as a creative side business in 2017 quickly became my passion and what I wanted to do full-time. In 2022 I made that a reality. I bring over a decade of experience to help polish and transform my client's drafts into the vision they dream of.
