WELCOME SAVANT EDITOR KAREN GRIMSHAW

Posted by Daniel S. on Tuesday, November 29, 2016, In : Staff Introduction 

New to Savant but not to editing, I have taught English and writing for over 30 years and am appreciative of the high level of literary competency that can be achieved often with the simplest of editing.

Posted by Daniel S. on Friday, November 4, 2016, In : Staff Introduction 

Aloha Savant Staff, Authors and Writers Around the World,
