Emily E K Murdoch

Emily E K Murdoch – Editor

USAT Bestselling Author, developmental and line editor, proofreader. Working with bestselling authors for 6+ years.

Overview

Hello, authors: I get it.

It's hard.

You've poured your heart into a book, and you need a line editor or proofreader who isn't just going to check your work, but check everything: the historical accuracy of the clothing, the speech, the geography, the items used and the idioms expressed.

That's where I come in.

With a MA in Medieval Studies and 100+ historical books of my own published as a USAT Bestseller (yup, I'm one of you!), my developmental editing, line editing, and proofreading services INCLUDE all the historical checking that you worry about.

Let's talk about your project!
