ABOUT ME
I'm a book coach, editor, and published author with over 20 years of experience in both technical and creative writing. Throughout my career, I’ve helped more than 120 authors complete and publish their books—many of them debut authors and many working on multi-book series. I know firsthand the challenges of writing a book, because I’ve faced them myself.​

"Heather Preis is an outstanding editor and ally for new authors! Her ability to remember the entire book while reading is nothing short of phenomenal. She caught so many issues that were inconsistent, and notes as an editor are clear and offer real direction on how to make a book read better. Additionally, when she does write on behalf of an author, she does so in the voice of the narrator, as if I had written it! Crazy skill that I had never seen before. If you need help with your book, talk to Heather! She’s the real deal."
Dale Allen-Rowse,
author of Journey of a Dark Shaman trilogy
"Working with Heather has been an absolute game-changer. After working with her on more than six books, she’s not only fine-tuned my finished manuscripts with exceptional attention to detail but she’s also done so in a way that has taught me to be a better writer. Her keen eye and insightful feedback have consistently elevated my work, and I am deeply grateful for her guidance. I can't recommend her enough!"
Christine Roberts,
author of Heathen Brotherhood series and many more
