Joan N – Editor

As a copy-editor for over twelve years, I have developed a highly sensitive eye for detail and an excellent memory for catching timeline or logistical discrepancies. I'm also great at helping with more basic things such as the proper setup for dialogue tags. I typically request a two-week turnaround time because I want to spend time on your novel, reading through it completely twice to catch all the edits. I offer suggestions in my edits but I never rewrite the author's story--that is certainly not my place. My job is to make your work shine! If you've written a book and are in need of an editor, then I'm the freelance editor you're looking for. Get in touch today and I'll get you on the schedule.

Testimonial:

"I have been working with Joan for at least seven years, if not longer. Joan consistently provides thoughtful feedback, leaving detailed comments to explain why she made a change or offering suggestions that give me options. One thing I truly appreciate is that she has never tried to change my voice as a writer—she respects it while helping me improve my work. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a skilled, attentive, and professional editor."
