About me

DeLaine Roessner

I graduated from the University of Florida (go Gators!) with dual degrees in Psychology—Behavioral Analysis and Criminology. During University, I tutored fellow students from the University of Florida, as well as students from Florida State University and Florida Atlantic University in Creative Writing. I spent four years helping students find their writing voice and perfect their craft.

After working as a legal writer at a law firm for the past two years, I decided to take a leap and move to Boston, MA, where I am now working full-time as an independent editor.

I have always had a passion and affinity for writing and editing, as well as the drive to help others get their stories out into the world. I am a reader at heart and I believe that mankind’s most profound creation has been (and will always be) stories.

As an independent editor, I specialize in fiction and true crime nonfiction.

Let’s brave these waters together and set your story afloat.

Whether we’re riding with dragons, traversing far-away lands, or navigating sharp-tongued faeries (with even sharper jawlines), I’m along for the voyage.

I want stories that make me turn on the light before turning the next page. Give me moonlit knives and mind- melting twists.

Bring on the stories that sweep you off your feet and shower you with lingering glances and sun-soaked kisses.

(and dark romance)

true crime

Missing persons and unidentified subjects are all the rage. Let’s break into a genre readers are dying to gobble up.

Big worlds and even bigger ideas. Sling on that bow, strap on those combat boots, and try not to breathe in too much smoke.
