Passionate about helping writers learn about the world of publishing with all the new changes!

I've worked in Editorial, Art, Production, Subsidiary Rights, Foreign Rights, and ran various Contracts/Copyrights/Permissions departments. I'm the creator of Unicorn for Writers paid services for writers), Black Hawk Literary & Portfolio Agency (no fees to clients), and Unicorn Writers Conference. I will be teaching two continuing education classes this fall - Greenwich, CT and Trumbull, CT.
