Erin McShay Poche
Freelance Writer & Editor
Words are powerful.
​
They can influence, teach, wrench your heart, and change your worldview entirely. To me, fiction writing done well is poetry, an art that sparks ideas and leaves your heart full.
​
I can communicate your mission, grow your business, and help with editing your book-either developmental, line or proofreading—editing fiction and nonfiction books.

About Me
"Behind every successful woman is herself and a dog who follows her to the bathroom."
I’m a book nerd, coffee and red wine connoisseur who believes all great things can only be achieved with a light heart. I enjoy hiking with my family in the beautiful Cottonwood Canyons near my home and traveling to unique destinations.
I’m a Utah-based freelance writer and editor who works part-time for a website focusing on adult onset type 1 diabetes, and part-time for an indie publisher of fantasy, sci-fi, and paranormal fiction. In my free time I write women’s historical fiction. I’ve completed one novel and am currently working on my second.
Seven years ago, I realized I was extremely unhappy working in finance. I pulled an old novel I’d written out of my closet and began editing. I scraped the novel, re-wrote it and began my career as a writer and editor.
I’m an avid reader who typically has three to four books going at once—no kidding😊
