The journey from first draft to published novel can be difficult, complex, and lonely. It can oftentimes feel like crossing an ocean in a sailboat. As an editor and published author, I’ve been there and know how to help. I can provide a compass and map by which to navigate your unique literary journey.

My name is Dorothy Tinker. I’m an explorer of worlds (both this one and others) and an “editor of all trades.” I can help you steer your project on course with a mind for your full story map while keeping your plot sails trimmed with a precision and attention to detail I honed in university studying mathematics.

And just like your own story and journey, my background is unique. I have a BS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Texas at Dallas, and I obtained my Editing Certificate from the University of Chicago. I have worked on fiction novels (ranging through science fiction, fantasy, romance, horror, and young adult), memoirs, and short story anthologies.

Are you ready to set your journey on a quality course?
