Pamela J Taylor
Editing4You
Pamela Taylor has over 30 years’ experience writing and editing a wide variety of materials in the corporate sphere. She is known not only for superior grammar skills, but also for her ability to quickly grasp the author’s intent and transform a document into a something that has a real impact on its audience. Her ability to synthesize the essence of a story from complex details is widely respected and is witnessed in the numerous testimonials she has received for her work.
Throughout her career, Pamela has worked with a wide variety of personalities and personal styles. She has exceptional skill in understanding the voice or style of the author and helping to ensure that is reflected in the finished work. At the same time, she is a good coach, helping an author to see how a different approach or a different choice of words might more effectively convey the message or story. She can collaborate equally well with the person who just wants to hand her something and say “fix it” as with the individual who wants to engage more fully in the process.
Upon retiring from the corporate sphere, she began freelancing and is actively growing her client base. Her historical fiction series, The Second Son Chronicles, was recently named a Finalist for Fiction Series for the 2021 Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
She spent 4 years on the judges panel of the Ink & Insights writing contest and writes the historical fiction column, “Past Perfect,” for DIY MFA.
