Jaime P. – Editor

I have edited some of the biggest names in indie horror and paranormal. Now available for proofreading. Let's make your book scream!

Overview

Hello, you beautiful monsters!

You did it! You made it to my profile! When I told my husband he started calling all our relatives! Some baked elaborate desserts in your honor. Others felt moved to write poetry. That really jacked guy at the gym started doing vigorous push-ups. Everyone rejoiced! So the hard part is over!

l’m Jaime, a professional editor, who has worked as a content and copy editor, as well as a proofing editor in all fiction genres. I currently work for Hellbound Publishing, a publishing house specializing in dark fiction, as well as an editor for the company My Book Inside, and a private editor to Jessica Hall, but I still make plenty of time for new and exciting Reedsy projects.

I love giving my authors as many tools as I can to help them succeed in the publishing world. That's why you will see that not only do I execute a thorough proofread of your manuscript, but I also give advice when needed in the margins! During the process I will be one of your biggest cheerleaders! So feel free to message me day or night; I always keep Reedsy open on my computer 24-7. Can't wait to work with you!

Jaime was so fast and sweet with her responses throughout the time we worked together. I also found her very understanding and knowledgeable. There were many things I was taught through her edit, like how to emphasize emotion in a better way and to look for specific words that are weak. I enjoyed...

“Your voice, only louder.” This is why I asked to collaborate with Jaime. I worried that having my stories professionally edited wound diminish my voice, and that my thoughts and story messages would get lost in the edit. I’m very glad to say this was not the case and I’m very happy with the ed...

I could write a book about all the things I didn't know when I set out to write this book. Fortunately, I have had amazing people like Jaime Powell in my corner, on my side, keeping me on the path to greater success. Jaime is a profoundly thorough copy editor and proofreader. Atop all of the rec...

Extremely disappointing collaboration. I hired Jaime as a copyeditor for my novel. While she completed it on time, the quality of her edits was severely subpar. I expected a detailed copy edit of the document and Jaime provided an extremely scant edit, making note of only a few typos and grammati...

Jaime was positive and completed her edits on time, she also wasn't asking for a lot of money and that was convenient for me because I am just getting started out.
