Write the Book Your Ideas Deserve
"TJ, you are unique in the universe. You are a scientist in editor's clothes, able to think like a scientist and like an editor simultaneously. You can see the bones of book, even when they are beneath layers of what, well, something else less pleasant. You can go through a book quickly and see where things should be. You have made my books so much better. You have made so many books so much better. And you do it by seeing truths, revealing truths and playing with ideas. Maybe there are/were other editors like you, but if so, they were from another century. THANK YOU for all you have done."

I started Linden and Lime Editorial Services in 2025 with one goal: to help scientists, mathematicians, and thoughtful people of all stripes write the best idea-driven nonfiction they can. I spent 20 year in New York City trade publishing doing just that, editing prize-winning books and New York Times best-sellers such as Dan Flores's Coyote America, Arthur Benjamin's Magic of Math, and Martin Ford's Rise of the Robots.Â
Whatever point you have reached in your book's journey, I can help. Whether you are looking for a book coach or advice on a proposal, a thoughtful line-edit or the deepest-diving developmental edit you could hope for, get in touch. I will help you write the book your ideas deserve.
