Alexandra McLaughlin – Editor

Over the last several years, I've had the amazing opportunity to work with and edit for New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestselling authors. My specialty is romance (most notably romantic suspense), though I have also worked on a number of urban fantasy novels. I currently work for two independent publishing houses and have ample experience in the indie publishing process from start to finish should you need any tips. I love working with authors to make their stories as immersive as possible (bye-bye pesky typos)!

Some of the authors I've edited for include:

- Anna Zaires

- Charmaine Pauls

- Ava Lohan

- Misha Bell

- Dima Zales

As a copy editor and proofreader, my goal is to polish your draft. This means correcting any erroneous punctuation, misspellings, inconsistencies (it happens to the best of us), and syntax. I pore over your manuscript with a fine-toothed comb and make sure it flows as smoothly as possible while maintaining your individual voice. This keeps your readers engaged with the story, and not the words on the paper (or screen). There's nothing worse than being pulled out of an epic love scene by a syntax error!

My experience working in all facets of publishing (editing, formatting, design, marketing, and promotion) gives me an edge when working on a manuscript. I know what the polished product should look and feel like. There's a certain magic present when a book is ready for publication. Let me help you create it!
