About Brad Petit
Professional Book Editor, Co-Author, and Strategist
Great books aren’t simply assembled. They are built with craft and care—and a whole lot of know-how.
Drawing on two decades of experience as a professional editor and writer, I work with celebrities, public figures, business founders, executives, and serious authors to shape memoir and nonfiction projects into successful books.
My background spans creative writing, editorial development, and strategic communications. I am a published author with an MFA in Creative Writing and have spent years working across marketing, publishing, and long-form storytelling in both fiction and nonfiction. You won’t find many editors or book consultants with my combination of deep experience and top-tier skills.
I’ve worked as a:
Developmental editor
Copyeditor and proofreader
Book co-author
Nonfiction strategist
Manuscript reader
Screenwriter
Writing instructor
Book designer
Publishing liaison
Each project receives my signature attention to detail paired with my wholistic approach to structure, pacing, voice, audience, and market positioning. Many books fail in one or more of these areas. My goal is to ensure that yours doesn’t.
If you’re a public figure or founder considering a memoir, or an author serious about producing work at a professional level, we should talk.
