Do you dream of being an author but aren’t sure where to start? You’re in the right place.

It's time to demystify the daunting publishing process and cultivate your skills and industry knowledge.

 I help ambitious writers seize their story's moment, push themselves as authors, and prepare for publication with my personalized, goal-oriented editorial services.

 
 

My goal is to demystify the publishing process for authors. 

I’ve seen first hand how difficult it can be for writers to access knowledge about both their craft and career.

As an editor, I help you cultivate the skills, confidence, and industry knowledge you need to take your career to the next level.

Each service I offer prepares writers to take their next step with confidence.

Whether that be outlining, revising, querying, or publishing.

When you work with me, you get one-on-one, goal-oriented feedback from an experienced industry professional. 

Our collaboration is directed by your goals and visions for your work, so we focus exclusively on the ways you want to improve your craft and career.

The feedback I offer is always intended to move you closer to the specific goals you have for your manuscript. 

You’ll be guided by the most-up-to-date industry knowledge to ensure you’re on the best track to success in the current marketplace.

You only get one first impression. 

Agents and publishers are increasingly looking for work that arrives in their inbox already polished.

I offer the following services to help you get there:

  • Developmental edits 

  • Line edits 

  • Proposal edits

  • Query letter reviews 

  • Book coaching

Hey, it’s nice to meet you.

My full name is Elizabeth Grace Gassman, and my initials spell EGG. When thinking about what to name my business, the idea of an egg incubating and hatching felt similar to the process of writing and the name felt like a natural fit. 

I’m an editor, writer, reader, and teacher based in Manhattan. When I don’t have my nose in a book, you’ll find me cooking, gardening, or watching music documentaries.
