Hi there! I’m Greta.

I’m a writer, editor, and lover of speculative fiction living in the Midwest. I write about flawed characters seeking peace and belonging in a broken world. I’d love to help you tell your story, too.

Helping You See Your Story Through

Writing anything is a challenge - you shouldn’t have to do it alone. I’ve spent over a decade writing and editing tales of the fantastical and uncanny, and I’d love to cheer you on and give you the tools you need to feel confident finishing your story and getting it on its way to publication.

  • Greta's feedback went right to the heart of my concerns. Without any hints from me, she identified the problems I was having with my work-in-progress and responded with prompts and questions that got me thinking and working outside my box.

    — Jennifer James (short story critique)

  • Her comments were super clear, helpful, and supportive. Overall, this made me more keen to work on the story and to write more in general.

    —Maria C. (short story critique)

  • Greta gave me some of the best feedback I’ve ever received. She was so meticulous and thoughtful and “got” my story in the way you want your ideal reader to get it, not just as an editor.

    — Alexandra Wendt (manuscript evaluation)
