Oh, hello there! I'm Taylor Morris, and this is my website. Welcome!
I am a full-time freelance editor. I copy edit, proofread, and do developmental edits. I am a young adult and children's editor and specialize as a middle grade editor. I also happen to be a middle grade author. I've had a dozen books published by two of the big five publishing houses, and I also do a lot of ghostwriting for women's romance. I have ten romance books published under a different, top-secret name.
Have a look around, and please message me if you have any questions.
In the meantime, I'll just be writing, or reading, or editing, or dreaming of the perfect lemon pie.
About My Editing
First I was a writer, then I became an editor. Why does this matter? Because I get it. I know what it takes to write a book and how it feels to get those editorial letters. That’s why I always give authors compassionate honesty. I want you to achieve your dream.
About My Writing
I am the author of eight middle grade books and four chapter books, all published by Simon & Schuster's Aladdin/Mix line and Penguin Workshop, a division of Penguin Random House. I’ve also written three MG and YA non-fiction books, plus ten adult romance books published under a top-secret name.
*does the math*
I’m the author of 25 books.
