About — The Engaged Editor

Amanda Sumner

CERTIFIED COPYEDITOR

I’ve worked in publishing for over twenty-five years, writing and editing for book publishers, newspapers, magazines, Fortune 500 companies, and nonprofits.

I started on the editorial staff of W. W. Norton & Company and the Ecco Press (an imprint of HarperCollins). My clients’ books have been finalists and winners in contests such as the National Readers’ Choice Award and the Independent Publishers Book Awards (IPPYs). I’ve spoken twice at Romance Writers of America national conferences.

My greatest achievement, though, is how happy my clients are with their books when I have finished editing them. Have a look at my testimonials page to learn more.
