​

My name is Dayna (she/they) and I have always been a bookworm and a bit of a know-it-all, which led to the nickname of “Dictionary Dayna” in elementary school. While I have mostly subdued the urge to show off what I know, I'm still very much a reader, often finishing more than five books a week.
 

How do I do so much while also copyediting full-length manuscripts and participating in several fiber arts guilds, multiple editorial and writing associations, and a local church group? It’s not about me; it’s about the books.
 

Well-written, carefully edited books keep readers engaged. I delight in helping independent authors produce the best versions of their books through attention to grammar, spelling, and punctuation; continuity and verifiable facts; conscious language notes; and Americanization.
