Hi, I’m Leyla.

I’m an imaginative and detail-oriented editor with five years of experience working in children’s publishing.


ABOUT ME

I’m a queer, Middle Eastern children's book editor with five years of experience working at Big Five publishing houses, where I provided editorial support on many wonderful books across age categories and genres.

As a freelance editor, I work with authors of all levels writing picture books, middle grade, or YA. When providing editorial feedback, I carefully consider the goals and heart of a project to ensure the author’s vision remains at the forefront of the process.

Additionally, I work with agents who are interested in editorial support for their clients and publishing houses in need of extra help.
