How Can I Help You?



Editorial Philosophy
Books have been a part of my identity for longer than I can remember.
Words possess transformative magic—the closest thing to magic is words. Consider that merely rearranging twenty-six letters in various combinations can unlock countless doors to realms of love, fantasy, history, alternate galaxies, dimensions, and beyond. The potential in manipulating these letters is boundless; words can acknowledge our wounds, facilitate time travel, and enable us to experience myriad lives within a single lifetime.
As individuals involved in publishing, we wield a unique power—the ability to swing open these doors for others through the books we introduce to the world. It is a profound and influential gift. Words, when curated thoughtfully, have the potential to shape perspectives, evoke emotions, and transport readers to realms limited only by the boundless imagination. Embracing this power, I am dedicated to contributing to the literary landscape, ensuring that the books I work with are not just stories but gateways to diverse, enriching worlds.
At the heart of my philosophy is the understanding that all writers come from diverse backgrounds and cultures and come from different walks of life. It is essential to me as an editor to create an environment where everyone feels safe to open up and express themselves. I understand that each book I take on is a gift. There is nothing more raw and vulnerable than sharing something you have spent countless hours, weeks, months, years, and decades pouring yourself into. As an editor, I understand how scary it can be to invite someone into your world and accept critiques; that is why I tailor my services to your needs and take on each book with the utmost care and compassion.

About
Tayler Hill

Hi, I’m Tayler Hill — an editor, author, and publishing professional based in Toronto, Ontario. I work with Inimitable Books, Fflat Books, At Home Author, and also run my own editing company (FOLK&TALES), where I help authors bring their stories to life across Adult, Middle Grade, and Young Adult genres.
I have a background in both creative writing and publishing, and I’ve also spent time working at a literary agency, which gave me great insight into what makes a manuscript stand out in today’s market. Whether a writer is submitting to agents or planning to self-publish, I love helping them shape their work into the strongest version it can be.
For me, editing is about more than just fixing grammar or tightening prose — it’s about partnering with the author to make sure their voice shines. I know how personal and vulnerable sharing your writing can be, and I approach every project with care, compassion, and a deep respect for the story you’re trying to tell.
If you're looking for an editor who understands the industry, will treat your manuscript like the heart project it is, and will cheer you on through the process — I’d love to connect!
