Cindy Keele

I’ve been writing and publishing since 2012.

 

With a BA in English from Weber State University, I have nearly 40 books published and have been editing books professionally since 2017. Before that, I was a critique partner and beta reader for years.

 

I’ve edited hundreds of novels for multiple bestselling authors, and I’ve worked for a small press and a large publishing house. I’ve watched books I’ve edited skyrocket up to the top 100 of Amazon, which is pretty amazing to watch as an editor. I adore digging into stories and finding ways to polish them.

 

I edit all genres and heat levels. I've worked on Fantasy, Contemporary Romance, Historical Romance, Women’s Fiction, Paranormal, Mystery, Dystopian, Sci-Fi, YA, and Middle Grade.

 

I’m also an acquisitions editor at Romantica Publishing. If you’re interested, you can submit to me at submit@romanticapublishing.com.

I enlisted Cindy’s services to guide me through the changes that needed to be made. Boy, I’m glad I did. Seriously, I’m not sure I could have done it without her.

I hired Cindy Ray Hale to do a content and copy edit, and I'm glad I did. She helped me tighten my story and bring my book to life. Whenever I had a question, she'd reply quickly and helped me figure out certain plot points that gave me issues. As I write my next book, her words of wisdom are in the back of my head, guiding me. I highly recommend working with her.
