Welcome!

My name is Georgia Atkin, and I am a writer and editor based in Nova Scotia, Canada. I provide copy and stylistic editing services for a wide range of projects, and substantive editing for poetry and fiction (with a focus on mystery and fantasy fiction).

I write poetry, short fiction, and a smattering of non-fiction, and you can find a list of some published works here on my site (as well as my Creative Corner page, where I post new flash fiction stories from time to time).

Georgia Atkin did a substantive edit of my manuscript for middle grade readers. I don’t think anyone could have done a more thorough, insightful job. Her in-depth study of my writing exceeded my expectations for its solid critique and sharp insights related to structure, characterization, and plot developments. Above all, I welcome her enthusiastic encouragement.

Georgia and I worked together on a children’s book based on my own memories of growing up as a Lebanese Canadian in Halifax. She was so helpful in asking the right questions to draw out more detail for my story, and offered invaluable insight and feedback on my work. I am so happy with the final product and look forward to working with her again in the future.
