I take the stress out of your literary project planning.

From research, organizing, and writing to editing and design, I can bring your document to completion in one place.

How we begin

The Chair Side Experience

The Chair Side Experience is a technique developed from my time as an adoptive family mentor and my education in Customer Success. It is unique and allows me to become quickly acclimated to you, your style, and your voice. This experience can be accomplished virtually or in person.

Who helps

Table Talk

At Bold Oak, my clients are not limited to my own proficiency. I believe that projects beyond my purview of knowledge should have the best experts guiding the creative process. These amazing women on my team are subject matter experts in their own fields. With your approval, they gather at my table, offering their knowledge and diversity of ideas to achieve the best outcomes for my clients. I want you to know what I bring is the best, from my table to yours.

What it costs

Pricing & Services

Every project is special to me. I base my fee schedule on the Editorial Freelancers Association. However, I take into consideration the needs of the author or the organization. Special pricing may be available for 501(c)(3) organizations with tax-exempt numbers and documentation.

What people are saying

You took my scribbles, thoughts, and mumblings and gave them a voice. You were patient and encouraging when the process looked impossible. You made sure I brought my best to every word and chapter in this book. Thank you, Martta!

Magical Word-Smith Extraordinaire. Developmental Editor of Epic Proportions. Gripping Storyteller. And get this: she masters these traits, not necessarily in fiction, but in the B2B SaaS/Tech space! And her stuff resonates with my audience. Period. Never, ever, EVER could I have gained immense notoriety in my field without Martta by my side. She SEES me. She LISTENS. She asks QUESTIONS. She DIGS IN. She’s helped me find my VOICE. Martta is my Muse, with a capital M. What does that mean exactly? I had no idea until one day she luckily entered my stratosphere. Maybe you’ll be so lucky… but beware, I might fight you for her.
