I’m Sandra Peoples—lover of lemonade, sleeping late, and em dashes. I’m from the South but I now live north of the Mason Dixon line, so I’m likely to use “y’all” and “you guys” in the same sentence.
My husband is a pastor. We have two boys and are in the process of adopting from Ethiopia. I like to read, teach my ladies Sunday school class, and keep the weeds from taking over my garden.
My days look like this:

Two years ago I read a quote that changed my life:
“If there’s a book you really want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” Toni Morrison
We were in the midst of the first year after our son’s autism diagnosis and I couldn’t find a book that told me that how I felt was ok, how to help my son, and how I would survive that first year. So I wrote one.
It was such a positive experience, I decide I wanted to help others publish their books. So Next Step Editing was born. Here you’ll find information on my editing services for your book and your blog. You can purchase my helpful e-book, Beyond the Basics: 30 Tips for Better Writing.
