About

Hi, I’m Kerri (she/they)—editor and sci-fi nerd with a passion for queer stories.

I wrote my first short story, The Alien Star, when I was six years old, and I haven’t looked back since. Through years of reading, writing, and exploring other worlds—real and imagined—I found my passion: queer storytelling, specifically speculative fiction, and even more specifically science fiction.

I founded Prism & Orbit Editing because I believe queer voices deserve to take up space—in every genre, every format, and every corner of the galaxy. I’m here to help you bring your story to life.

And it’s not just about fiction. I love working on website copy, Substack posts, newsletters, and even the occasional werewolf-themed marketing email. Whatever you’re writing is important and deserves to shine as bright as a supernova..

Ready to tell your story? Let’s make queer magic happen.

queer-lived experience

As a non-binary lesbian, I understand how important it is to have queer stories told by queer people. As a queer editor, I handle your words with the care and understanding they deserve.

testimonials

Kerri was great to work with on parts of my book. She got invested in the story and helped keep the original voice while providing some great opportunities to improve. The feedback she provided was thoughtful and made sense in the story. She offered different ways to workshop sections I was passionate about keeping and I would work with her again on my next project.
