WELCOME TO THE EDGE OF AUGUST
Edge of August provides developmental editing and book proposal writing services for new and experienced authors. Partner with Ty Love to bring your creative vision to life.

I offer tailored editorial services that elevate your writing and bring your vision to life, whether you’re starting your first book or refining a manuscript, need ongoing coaching or just want the full run-down on what needs fixing.
I’m here to get your book that much closer to the version you’ve been dreaming of. I don’t hold back—my feedback is clear, direct, and thorough—but I also genuinely believe we can get your story closer to the 'perfect' version of it you have in your head, which means I approach every book with a positive attitude. Yes, I’ll challenge you to dig deeper and create more conscientiously, but I’ll be sure to keep the process engaging and fun, too. You’ll know exactly what to do next, and together we’ll bring your vision to life, ready to make its mark in the publishing world.
With over a decade of experience as a developmental editor and publishing professional I’ve had the privilege of contributing to 18 New York Times Bestsellers, two Oprah Book Club picks, and countless more books.
So go on, grab your pen. Let's get started.
