Hire Diane for Editing

Diane Amento Owens specializes in nonfiction editing.  She will bring fresh eyes and creative ideas to a writing project, whether it’s an article or manuscript.

As a published author of the anthology LifeLines, she understands both the writing and editing process. She has had an extensive background working with writers in the business, legal and the mental health field. She had 10 years experience teaching the basics of English at the middle school level, and as the founder of Wise Women Write™ workshops, she has worked with writers of all skills and ability levels.

“Effective editor, reads with intelligence and sensitivity to the material, easy to work with and efficient.”  Judith Suggs, Ph.D., co-author of  Families Recovering Against All Odds, says about Diane’s editing of this workbook for families of compulsive gamblers.

Diane is currently a copyeditor and freelance writer for the Barrett-Jackson event program-magazine published quarterly by Event Books, LLC. She uses AP Style and is responsible for following a multi-page company style guide.

Diane was an editor for Sailing the Pink Sea, Debbie Huntsman’s voyage through breast cancer, published by Applestar Publishing, LLC.

Diane says:

Let me edit your work as your partner. I will be relentless, but I will also be your gentle guide. My eye for detail and organization will give your work structure, purpose and strength.

I will make you work hard, and I will ask tough questions about what you’ve written.

The revision and editing process is not easy, nor will I be the one doing all the work. Together, we will make your writing sing.
