About Us

๐Ÿ”ด Ever picked up a book, eager to dive in, only to stumble on awkward sentences, plot holes, or characters that feltโ€ฆ off?

Frustrating, isnโ€™t it?

Thatโ€™s where I come in.

I help authors turn good stories into gripping reads that keep readers hooked from page one to โ€˜The End.โ€™

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

๐Ÿ‘ Absolutely loved working with Global Bookworms on my first book! They made the process simple to understand and I trusted them with my project. The attention to detail is great. I appreciated how invested they became in my book. It meant a lot! Great work and highly recommended.

๐Ÿ‘ Very thorough and detailed editing process. We worked with both Joanna and Barbara and they worked efficiently and in a friendly manner. We would definitely use Global Bookworms again.

WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE:

โœ“ Youโ€™ll get better reviews.
โœ“ Your mind can be at ease because weโ€™ll listen to you.
โœ“ Get a clearly laid out process.
โœ“ Your story. Your voice. Not ours.
โœ“ Youโ€™ll receive great attention to detail.
โœ“ Have someone who is invested in your book.

Whether you're an emerging writer or a seasoned author, having the right editor can be the difference between a book that simply exists and one that leaves a lasting impact.

Your readers deserve the best version of your storyโ€”letโ€™s make that happen.

How We Got Started

A young woman's passion, a craft she'd yet to discover would become her true calling, was impaled by the dishonest work of another. So, she walked away, angry at such deceitful practices. With determination etched into every step, she embarked on a journey over countless miles and treacherous terrain. As the days got longer and the nights shorter, she pushed forward. In time she found her dwelling place, contentedly honing her craft though her work was never done, and with open hands eagerly shared an encouraging word and all she'd learned with passersby.

Perhaps I embellished that a smidge, but who can resist the lure of an enthralling tale? My mind dreams of worlds authors weave and my heart aches for characters when they suffer. Yet my greatest joy lies in bringing out the heart and soul of a story. To help authors hone their craft and their characters, to pull on the reader's heart strings, and aid in the flow of a story.

She was recommended to me by Victor Felix and it was an amazing experience. After an initial interview she started working immediately on my new logo. I fell in love with the concept she had created and with a couple of tweaks it was perfect! She also made me several social media banners, a letterhead & provided a PDF explaining how to use the logos and what colors and fonts were used as well. Highly recommended!"

Read more "Victor and I have been working together for a few months now and I always look forward to our one-on-one meetings because he always has some small nugget of wisdom to either share with me or to push me out of my comfort zone to take the next step in my business. He listens and is really helping me flesh out my brand. He just finished creating a new website for me based on the logo Wendy Babatunde made for me as well and I couldn't be happier with it! Truly a blessing to my business. Highly recommended!"

I sometimes work on Saturday after chores and before family time, but Sunday is my day of rest. I don't do a single thing related to my business. Things for my part time job at my church, that's different. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ (more) I sometimes work on Saturday after chores and before family time, but Sunday is my day of rest.
