Bailey Potter

A fervent bookworm since childhood, Bailey Potter searched for her career among nutritional therapy, herbalism, entrepreneurship, art, and medieval history before she realized it was in front of her all along—books!

With that, she got her master’s in publishing at Portland State University specializing in editing and design. Bailey has also had the pleasure of working as the associate acquisitions editor for Beyond Words and a project manager for Ooligan Press, as well as having freelanced for New Harbinger Publications, Forest Avenue Press, and several others in addition to numerous authors. Between her background dabbling in various subjects, her experience working with publishers, and her personal reading preferences, Bailey specializes in editing nonfiction genres from professional and commercial psychology and self-help books to those more in the mind-body-spirit realm (including card decks) as well as fiction books in the fantasy, science fiction, speculative fiction, and romance genres, just to name a few. From developmental editing to proofreading, she has experience working on manuscripts at all editing levels.

Bailey lives in drizzly Portland, Oregon, and also works at BOLD Coffee & Books. In her spare time, Bailey likes to go rock climbing, do yoga, cuddle her cat, spend time with loved ones, and—of course—read.
