Sarah Hansen, editor at The Wild Rose Press
Sarah has a degree in Professional Forestry from Michigan State - which occasionally comes in handy. She got into editing at TWRP in 2007. It's always been something of interest to her. She became an editing fiend, and started soaking up info and rules and building her experience. She started out in contemporary romance and moved into paranormal within a couple months. In 2010, Sarah weaseled her way into the Senior Reading Department Coordinator position. She loves editing and ensuring the quality of manuscripts that TWRP releases. She loves developing relationships with authors and enjoys the peek into their creative mind. Sarah will give an insight into TWRP's history and a line description. After, she will delve into submission policies and house guidelines/preferences.
