Bass Patent Law’s founder, Tom Bassolino, was an engineer before becoming a patent attorney, and he has worked in both large law firm (aka “biglaw”) and boutique law firm settings. Tom’s experience has taught him that the product/service is what matters to clients. As such, Bass Patent Law aims to provide polished, detailed (yet broadly claimed), and intelligent patent applications to advance clients’ intellectual property needs and to enhance this critical facet of their business.

Bass Patent Law aims to charge reasonable rates for exceptional quality work. Therefore, Bass Patent Law maintains a truly modest overhead, while still providing a remarkable quality service to our clients.

I’ve edited for traditional publishers, self-publishing authors, and indie presses, so I have experience working with a variety of story types and publishing goals. And I completely understand how nerve-racking (and flat-out terrifying) it can be to hand over your story for feedback. When we work together, you can look forward to your edits—I’m on your team to help your work resonate with readers!

As far as my background, I hold an Editing Certificate from the University of Chicago’s graduate-level program, where I specialized in Developmental Editing. I’m on the board of directors for the San Diego Professional Editors Network, and a member of ACES, EFA, HWA, and SCBWI. I’m also part of the copyediting team for Strange Horizons, an award-winning SFF magazine. Before shifting to full-time fiction editing, I spent years in technical writing/editing, and have a degree in Environmental Science.

So how about you and I get started—and let’s get that story finished! Send me a message at contact@raquelbrown.com. I can’t wait to be a part of your publishing journey!
