Overview

For 23 years, I have been editing books, both fiction and non-fiction, and have been managing editor for two websites and main editor for seven more. I have also edited other short articles and blogs. I am a native English speaker, proficient in both US and UK English.

I excel at finding all the little things that editing programs and even other editors miss, such as consistency issues and correctly spelled but misused words. And of course I find all the usual stuff as well. There’s very little I miss, so you can trust me with your masterpiece.

I am adept with all manner of editing programs, including Word, Scrivener, Google Docs and GatherContent. I have clients in the USA, Europe, Canada, Mexico and Australasia. I'm based in New Zealand but can work whatever hours are needed.

I can work with all genres though I like editing fiction better than non-fiction. Science fiction and fantasy are my favorites, because a good editor can greatly assist an author in developing his characters and the storyline.

You’ll notice I have few Amazon-published books at this time. The reason for that is I’ve usually worked with non-Amazon publishers who sell their books and reports on their own websites. Please ask for examples of those, including ones mentioned below under my work experience section.

Thank you for reading.

THE LIFEBOAT STRATEGY

Mark Nestmann

On every front, 24 hours a day, you and your wealth face threats of an intensity that would have been unimaginable only a few short years ago. A sinister marriage of law and technology has made the pervasive and continuous surveillance that George Orwell warned of a reality. Identity thieves, greedy lawyers and the government have been quick to exploit this fast-evolving global surveillance ne... read more

The Breaking Dawn

Paul Rosenberg

The Breaking Dawn begins with an attack that crashes the investment markets, brings down economic systems and divides the world into two parts. One part is dominated by mass surveillance and massive data systems: clean cities and empty minds... where everything is assured and everything is ordered. The other part is abandoned, without services, with limited communications, and shoved fifty yea... read more

Where Have all the Young Girls Gone?

Vicki Wootton

In the 2020s the female birthrate starts to decline. By 2059 only one newborn in twenty is female. This drop in the number of females in the population causes serious social upheavals: changes in sexual mores, the lives of both men and women, occupations, marriage traditions, commerce, and crime. By 2040, the year Julia is born, there is only one female birth for every five males. The situatio... read more

The Shooter Act

Turner Tomlinson

Once upon a time, mass shooters achieved fame and infamy for their terrible misdeeds. But since the Shooter Act was passed, they get something else: a guarantee they’ll be forgotten. Now, it’s illegal to talk about or even speak the name of any of these killers. Their bodies are burned, and all evidence that they ever existed is destroyed. A punishment to fit the crime. But there are forces ou... read more
