Julie Lind – Editor

I am a writer, editor, and translator. I began my career in copywriting and editing and then moved into academia, specializing in literary studies and Spanish cultures. I have over a decade of experience working with academic and professional writers in the process of preparing their manuscripts for publication. Books I've edited have been published by Rowman and Littlefield, SUNY Press, and Bucknell University Press. I am also a creative writer; I am currently in the process of revising my first novel for publication, and I am halfway through a first draft of a second. I am looking to expand my editing services to creative prose in all genres.

Editing services I offer range from basic proofreading to copyediting, line editing, and developmental editing, depending on the needs of the manuscript and writer. I am fluent in Spanish and English but work on texts primarily in English. I always work in tracked changes and provide thorough comments along with my suggestions. I have been told I have an "eagle eye" for grammar. I have expertise in Chicago and MLA style guides and am adept at following formatting preferences of different presses.
