Candice Roma

Senistivity Reader

Candice Roma has dedicated her life to words. Initially, she had dreams of going to medical school, but when she was faced with the choice of Inorganic Chemistry or taking a Creative Writing class, she ran screaming from the science lab and into the amazing world of creative fiction. Since receiving her BA (Dartmouth College) and MFA (University of Notre Dame), she has divided her time between developmental and line editing for publishers and independent authors and working on her own creative projects.
Being a writer has made her an extremely compassionate editor. Every story exists perfectly in an author’s mind, and the hardest and most rewarding part of writing is capturing those words and bringing characters and emotions to life. Her goal is to help people tell their best story. Being a guide on a writer’s journey is the most gratifying work she’s ever done.

As a student of writing, an instructor of workshops, and an editor with over 15 years of experience, Candice wants to use her knowledge not only to help authors improve and elevate their current work in progress but also to teach skills that will assist them in becoming better writers.
