About Red Bridge
The name of this business comes from a cheerful red footbridge that crossed a deep ravine in the town where I grew up.
That bridge from my childhood—along with the stream below—was a place for me to play, to explore, to be bold and adventurous. It was a place to test myself, to build my confidence, and learn where my limits lay. It was a place of friendship, encouragement, and laughter. The red bridge made my life better.
​
With that in mind, I founded Red Bridge Editorial to make your life better--your writing life, that is! Good writing has an element of play. Let's play with your words a bit, be adventurous, and have fun as we find the touchstone of your story and polish it together.
