Welcome to Mary L. Holden, Editor

Letters.   Words.   Sentences.   Paragraphs.       Reading.    Writing.

      These nouns and two gerund forms of verbs represent my life’s work, play, and passion. I've been a freelance editor and writer since 2009.

My goal as your editor is to uphold your voice on the  page and get you to see your manuscript in its best light. 

I offer developmental editing, line and content editing, and, proofreading in all  genres.

A third-generation Arizonan, I collaborated in 2012 with  another native of this state, artist Kathryn Henneman, to create a chapbook in honor of Arizona's centennial. The print run was 3,500 copies, of which 12 remain. The chapbook's printing was sponsored by State Farm Insurance.
