Hey there. I’m Lisa.

Historian. Writer. Editor.

Hey, let’s chat about how to get you published.

Some things we can talk about:

• academic editing

• faculty writing development

• writing coaching

• formatting your dissertation

Most people know me as an academic publication consultant and writing coach. What you may not know about me is that over the years since earning my PhD but working as an entrepreneur outside official academic spaces, I've struggled with getting my own ideas out into the world. I used to think that academic publication wasn't for people like me. I spent way too many years feeling like my scholarship wasn’t good enough for publication. Even though I've always felt like a writer, I quit writing because of fear and shame about and persistent questions about who the hell was I to even try to get published. What I've learned is that spending years paralyzed wondering if my ideas or writing were good enough for publication wasn't actually helping me get my writing projects out the door and into the world and did nothing to help me feel like the productive writer I wanted to be. Instead, I decided to muster no small amount of moxie, follow my own unique intellectual passions, sharpen my writing skills, and get published as often as I could.

Here’s why I do what I do. Because too many underrepresented scholars are struggling against structural inequalities in academic spaces, their vitally important intellectual work goes unpublished and unrecognized. I teach them to transform their ideas into powerful and publishable scholarship to change the way we think about the world around us to help us solve the most urgent challenges of our time.
