Who Are Wordcrafters?
The Wordcraft Collective’s writers, editors, & agents are rigorously engaged with their own craft and will help you elevate yours.
Wordcrafters are writers, editors, and agents with a long track record of success — whether it’s publication, MFA completion, apprenticeship, fellowships, grant recipient, teaching artist and/or creative community stewardship.
ELEVATE YOUR CRAFT
Writing is personal. Not every editor is a great fit for every project. Work directly with a vetted Wordcrafter with the experience to work with you on book-length projects, individual pieces, query letter, or application materials. Wordcrafters have been there and will meet you where you’re at.
- MFA quality feedb on a writer’s budget
- Transparent pricing
- Opportunities for longer-term mentorship or project coaching
BECOME A WORDCRAFTER
Your vocation is our business. We do the admin so you can focus on the feedback. You didn’t get into writing & editing for your love of invoicing, payment-collections, or expense-tracking. Better yet? Pricing is transparent, flexible, and affordable.
- A business back-end tailored to the critique services you offer
- Transparent pricing & flexible commission tiers (80-90%)
- Did someone say no faculty meetings?
