About the Editor

Carly Tuma, award winning author

I spent my childhood buried in every book I could get my hands on, and my teenage and adult years writing my own. As such, I have a deep love for fiction and sparking powerful emotions through the written word. In college studying English, I honed my skills in language and literature and developed an intense appreciation for the art of crafting captivating narratives.


As a devoted enthusiast of fantasy novels, I find inspiration in magic and worlds that transport readers to realms beyond their wildest imaginations. I am particularly drawn to deep characters with compelling backstories, and understand the power of well-developed protagonists who resonate with readers on a profound level. But my fascination doesn't stop at the heroes' journey; I have a soft spot for engaging antagonists who are more than mere adversaries. Give me villains who are driven by their own unique ideals and past experiences, making their actions and motivations all the more complex and intriguing.


My editorial approach combines my expertise in language and my passion for storytelling. I want to empower authors to realize their visions while polishing their plots to perfection. My eye for detail and dedication to refining every aspect of a manuscript makes me an invaluable asset to any writer seeking to elevate their work to new heights.
