Julia Temlyn, Editor-in-chief
Julia is the owner of Temlyn Writing: freelance writing, editing, & community moderating/managing services, where she works diligently with clients to rescue excess apostrophes, save spliced commas, and repair injured & abused words, as well as bring healing through writing. She also enjoys and offers social media management, including online community managing & moderating services.
Additionally, she is the editor of Musical Reviewer and Writers Remember, and administrator of the Houston Writers & Editors Network. She also blogs occasionally at Mrs. Write Right, Word Therapist.
The highlight of her career thus far? Being interviewed on NPR’s (National Public Radio) The Bryant Park Project as a guest grammarian.
Julia has always been passionate about the written word, and has literally been writing and editing since she could read –- long before she received her B.A. in English — but she didn’t consider it for a career until she fell in love with the English department after trying out two other majors first (vocal music and communications). She journeyed through college both reading and writing about some of the best literature ever written, and getting graded for it — a dream come true! All the while she moderated an IRC chatroom where she met the man who would later become her husband. Four years and a bachelor’s degree later she graduated and got married, began freelancing as a writer, editor, and moderator not long after, and has been doing it ever since!
A native of New York and Central Florida, Julia currently resides outside SW Houston, Texas, with her incredible husband of seven years and their two goofy cats. She loves going to the theatre to see the latest musicals in town; she also enjoys singing (in choir and at home with a hairbrush), geocaching, sipping tea, watching a good movie, and spending time with her husband and family & friends.
