Eliot West Editorial

​​keen eye, queer lens, nerdy heart​

quick bio

Eliot West is an independent editor, educator, and writing coach with a specialty in inclusive language and storytelling. Queer romance fiction is their extra-special happy place!

In addition to working one-on-one with clients, they teach through the Loft Literary Center and elsewhere, serve on ACES’s Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility Advisory Committee, edit for publishers and other companies, and host a biannual unconference and spinoff accountability group for an amazing group of editors.

Eliot holds a PhD in English literature with a focus on literary theory and the novel … but their real education has been in reading queer romance novels, connecting with colleagues, working with students, and getting their hands dirty in manuscripts as texts grow into themselves.
