About Z
I'm an editor and a creative. My journey in the literary industry began in 2020 when I formed a small business, a mobile bookshop, What the Book? Since then, I have expanded my offerings to include custom bookish products on my online storefront.
​
The journey I've been on with my small bookish business has given me an incredible opportunity to connect with numerous indie authors. A common theme in our discussions is the cost associated with self-publishing, particularly regarding editing. I've found that many indie authors choose to forgo hiring professional editors. However, investing in professional editing is one of the most crucial steps you can take when preparing to publish a book.
While brainstorming ways to generate income for my family (as a "medical momma"), I decided to use my education (BA in English language and rhetoric) to advocate for indie authors by making editing services accessible and affordable. Since making that decision, I have collaborated with numerous authors on various projects, including high fantasy, fantasy, horror, romance, poetry, and bilingual narratives.
So, whether you're looking for unique, custom-made, bookish merchandise or a dedicated editor, I've got you covered!
Your friend and fellow book lover,
