Overview
I have edited in a variety of genres, but the genres I am most experienced in are historical romance, contemporary romance, and mystery/suspense. I specialize in substantive editing, copy editing, and proofreading. Since I manage the submissions desk at Covenant Communications, I also review hundreds of query letters every year, and I would be happy to review yours as well before you send it off to the agent or publisher at the top of your list. In working with authors, I know transparency and communication are key.
Before starting a project, I like to establish expectations and have a clear understanding of the project. When you send a project to me, you can expect clear comments and tracked changes so that you can review all the changes and suggestions I make. When I finish an edit, I'll send you two versions of the manuscript in Word documents. One with all the changes shown and one with all the changes accepted. For proofreads, if the manuscript is in a PDF, I'll make suggested changes using the highlight and comment tool. Of course, if you need me to edit in a different format, I can make adjustments. My main goal is to help you make your story the best it can be!
