Mining Your Message
for Gold

When you mine for gold, you have to dig deep. As an editor, my job is more than just brushing away dirt and cutting clichés. If your story is buried under tons of rock—dull descriptions, plot holes, confusing prose—the reader won’t see the value.

So let’s unearth that gold to grab your reader.

I signed up for a brainstorm to see if my WIP was any good, if it could actually work. Adina has the ability of a firecracker, to take something that’s already burning bright and find ways to fan the flame higher and brighter (through “why?” and “how”? questions—questions that engage the writer)!
I look forward to working with her more in the future.

Adina is an absolute pro. I worked with Adina on a five-page dialogue sample, and as I read through the edits, I felt like I was in experienced hands, from the first word to the last.
Her attention to detail and efficiency of her changes made for an easier read without losing any of what I was attempting to convey. I felt like she got my story, even in a small sample size.
