Publishing a manuscript can feel scary, but it doesn’t have to! Joel Brigham is a freelance fiction editor who takes the mystery out of the book industry, helps authors learn and grow in their craft, and optimizes storytelling to appeal to literary agents and readers.



Joel has a knack for understanding the heart of your story, even if you haven’t gotten it down perfectly on paper yet. He’s super kind, funny, and thorough, and as a fellow writer himself, he understands the work that goes into making a novel shine.”

Joel very quickly got to the heart of my issues and gave solid advice on how to overcome them. I was on a path of stagnation, and he sent me onto a path of progress with concrete suggestions of how to navigate. His unique understanding of both story and industry was invaluable.”
