WHAT SCRIBBLE EDITING DOES BEST
EDITING WITH A CONSCIENCE
Voices from all backgrounds, experiences, and parts of the world are needed in the publishing industry. In my work I seek to support and uplift voices that have historically struggled to become published authors, particularly Indigenous authors. Editing Indigenous literature requires understanding, humility, respect, and reciprocity, which I embody when working with Indigenous authors.
