Otherlands Editing
Midnight Voss and Margaret Bates are long-time friends who met first as fanfic writers almost twenty years ago. Since then, both have increased their professional experience in the fiction industry both through education as well as through working as ghostwriters and then as editors for small presses and individual clients. Both of us share a passion not just for fiction but specifically for speculative fiction. So, whether you write paranormal romance, romantasy, urban fantasy, fantasy, sci-fi, dystopia, or horror, one of us would love to work with you and make your book shine. We started as fans of these genres so we know the conventions, tropes, and plot points that make readers love them too, and we’re happy to help bring that knowledge to working with you!
