More than just making corrections to grammar and punctuation, what I try to do is create a writing course tailored to your specific needs based around your manuscript. Expect lots of comments and edits in the track changes that will teach you important aspects of writing fiction and serve you well for everything you write. Hiring an editor is an investment in your writing ability as much as it's about perfecting your book, and my goal is to make sure that investment pays off for you many times over.

*An emphasis on writing skills and comments to help you improve as a writer while getting your book ready for publishing
*A dozen years in the publishing industry with books that we've edited getting onto the New York Times bestsellers lists and getting picked up by traditional publishers in deals worth millions of dollars

Jason was great to work with! He's super fast and responsive. He's the best editor I've worked with.

I will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him.

But the most valuable service he provided me was unexpected--his editorial gui...
