WORK WITH ME
Not sure what type of editing you're looking for? Contact me to see if I'm the right fit for your project. I also offer discounts for packages that include two or more of the services below.
I work with most genres, but I'm probably not the best fit for: picture books, middle grade, Christian or religious fiction, academic assignments, and nonfiction (with exceptions. I do take on some memoirs). If you're not sure if I accept your genre, feel free to reach out!
MANUSCRIPT EVALUATION
Still early in the process and looking for some big-picture feedback? This service is for diagnosing plot holes, pacing issues, character development, style, and story structure. This includes an annotated copy of your manuscript and a detailed editorial letter with an overall assessment and suggestions for improvement.
COPY EDITING
Ready for a deep line-level polish? This service is for grammar, spelling, punctuation, inconsistencies, and cleaning up your sentences to make your story flow as smoothly as possible.
PROOFREADING
Fine-tune your manuscript before publication! One final pass to catch typos, formatting errors, and any remaining issues from a previous copy edit to perfect the overall appearance of your text. The manuscript must have undergone a previous copyedit - from me or another editor.
RATES
I have a B.A. in creative writing, read upwards of 100 books per year, work as a freelance writer and editor, and I'm an online book reviewer. All of this is to say, I've honed an eye for a great story and I know how to capitalize on its strengths and improve its weaknesses.
I offer a free sample edit to all potential clients - you deserve an editor who gets your book, and it gives you an opportunity to see my editing style to ensure you're 110% satisfied. If we're a good match, I'll create a custom quote to fit the needs of your project.
Whether you need a manuscript evaluation, a proofread, or in-depth copy edit, this is a partnership - I am always available for questions, concerns, or bouncing ideas off each other via email or phone.
As a writer myself, I know how important your work is to you. This is why I'm passionate about providing thorough feedback with equal parts honesty and compassion. Contact me today to see if we're a good fit - I can't wait to fall in love with your book!
