About
Crimson Turtle was founded in 2018 by Darica Smith with a simple goal: to help ideas become clear, compelling, and publication-ready. With more than 15 years of experience in writing and editing, Darica brings both precision and perspective to every project she touches.
From manuscripts and scientific articles to business documents and web content, Crimson Turtle offers more than editing. We evaluate, refine, and strengthen written work with a focus on accuracy, consistency, and clarity—while always preserving the author’s voice.
At Crimson Turtle, editing is just the beginning. We partner with clients to help their work reach its full potential.
