Julie Stanley
Founder and CEO

I am an award winning poet having won Presidential Awards for Literary Excellence, five honorable mentions, and  recognized for my poetry in various anthologies.  I am also published internationally.  I have worked closely with ESL writers at a content writing firm in Pakistan. With over fifty articles and poems under my belt,  my experience tutoring nearly thirty individuals in English and creative writing, I can assist any and all individuals in their creative writing needs. 

 

I am the  co-author of Fire and Water: a collection of poetry with fellow poet Aramey.  My debut novel, Faces in Still Waters, was published November 2013  I have a number of other books in the works including an epic-style poetic novella, Irony, Karma, and Fate Walk into a Bar, Chasing The Red, Chronicles of a Dog-Eared Poet, and The Tale of Dagda Forlorn Brock-a satrical novel reminiscent of Terry Pratchett and Robert Asprin.   For more information on my personal writing, visit The Writing of J.V. Stanley Official Website.  

 

Aside from editing and writing, I am also the Development and Marketing Director for Miracle E-zine and have been writing the review column, On The Bookshelf  for the past year and a half. 

I hold a BFA in English and Communications from University of Phoenix.  I plan to work toward my MFA in Creative writing through the Univeristy of Southern New Hampshire starting February 2015. 

My penchant for helping others morphed into a dream of running my own online editing service to help other writers.  I have worked as an editor for the past seventeen years and have since developed a reputation for quality services devoted to personalized one-on-one assistance to writers of all genres.  

I have a passion for poetry and connecting with the very talented individuals I works with.   My many talents include oil painting, graphic design, and Do-it-Yourself remodeling in her home in Upper Michigan where I lives with my fiance and two young children.
