The EdenEcho Story
My name is Amanda Berthault, and as a published author of several short stories and a professional editor since 2016, I have a passion for the written word. But I also have a passion for music, so it was only natural to bring a little touch of music love to my business name. (Google and enjoy!)
My editing career began at an indie fiction publisher specializing in science fiction and fantasy, but I soon branched out into working with independent authors. I enjoy reading a variety of genres, and write in the contemporary and urban fantasy genres.
Located in suburban Chicago, I live with my husband, twin daughters, and three cats.
