An Editing Superhero

Faster than a speeding deadline, more powerful than an explanation point, & able to leap a rough first-draft in a single bound...Super Annie O fights a never-ending battle for readability for all!*


Deciphering the written word by age 3, performing readings to family & friends from her front porch at 8, & finishing every book in her small hometown library by 12, Annie knew her uncanny ability to not only read, interpret, edit, & improve a writer's message but teach them to do it themselves must be used for good... not evil.


As the mild-mannered Annie Oortman, she travels the world (& YouTube) sharing her superpower with fiction & non-fiction authors, hoping one day to rid the publishing world of simple subjects, puzzling plots, & wretched writing.


*Her only weakness? Bookstores.

So... what's your superpower?

I’m blessed with two!


One: I can read a good manuscript & determine what’s needed to turn it into a great book… a viable, publishable, marketableone any author would be proud to have his or her name attached to.


Two: I’ve learned, developed, & practiced various innovative techniques that help me help many writers turn their stories or ideas or viewpoints or experience or knowledge or WHATEVER loose into the world.
