Tru Story Editing Services

Caroline J. Trussell has served in a number of editorial roles throughout her career including: literary agent, technical editor, editorial assistant, literary assistant, journalist, and author. She understands what it takes to sell a story from her multiple years of experience in the literary field and wants to help make your query package as (tru)ly amazing as it can be. Caroline graduated from the University of Central Florida with a major in Writing and Rhetoric and also attended the prestigious Columbia Publishing Course in 2021.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to demand, Caroline is only offering services for query letters, synopses, query packages, first chapter, and first three chapters critiques.

PLEASE READ: If your story deals with suicide/suicide attempts or sexual abuse/assault, I CANNOT take it on, so please do not purchase a plan. I am happy to refer you to other editorial services.

Fun facts about Caroline:

Caroline loves all cats and dogs, cheese (even though she knows she shouldn’t eat it), and her favorite season is Fall. Caroline is also a huge advocate for mental health and chronic illness.

Caroline can't wait to help you unlock your tru(e) potential as a writer and storyteller!

Caroline is very talented, not just at editing, but providing nurturing support and constructive advice. Polishing a piece can be a daunting experience and Caroline does a great job of being positive and helpful each step of the way. She helped me hone my synopsis and query letter, as well as fine-tune the first part of my manuscript. She was a pleasure to work with on each piece and I hope that we can work together again in the future.
