I'm Eliana Hale, a twenty-something writer born in Hollywood but have lived most of my life in Texas. I'm an author, copyeditor, and sometimes designer. I love encouraging writers.  When I'm not hanging out here, you can find me rocking out in headphones, penning poems, and singing at the top of my lungs when the occasion permits. Some of my works here are as follows:

The Area 51 Heist: An alien mixed up with criminals who are his only way home. My ONC 2025 novella.
The Sage and the Sorcerer: A Beauty and the Beast inspired 6-part novella (Completed).
The Half Giant's Guide to Seeing the Future: Female-led fantasy and adventure about border patrol agents guarding the giant world.
The Cursed Wish: A fairytale-inspired romance with fairies, princesses, and deadly curses (Completed).
Before Opening Night: A teen drama about a fateful theater show (Completed).
Summer Tempest: A romance at a university summer Shakespeare program (Indefinitely On Hold).
Regretless: Fantasy steampunk short stories.

I don't take reading requests, but I'm always happy to support people interacting with my writing. If you want to talk to me directly, I'm reachable on Instagram at the link below.

Since we are midseason for The Open Novella Contest, I thought I'd bring back the Ask the Editor community. I've written a special on quick editing. If you're still writing for ONC, I hope this helps...
