Madeline Greenhalgh – Editor

Experienced editor with a background in traditional book publishing for self-help, psychology, and lifestyle non-fiction.

Overview

As a professional editor, I'm dedicated to helping writers bring their words to life and tell their stories in the best, most authentic way possible. I am motivated, organized, and detail-oriented and want to make the editing process as smooth and easy as possible.

I have worked as a professional editor for nearly a decade and have accumulated skills in developmental, line, and copy editing as well as project management. I am friendly and professional in my communication and edits and view the editing process as a collaborative effort in which I'm in conversation with the writer so we can make the book the best possible version of itself.

Much of my experience is in self-help, psychology, how-tos, and lifestyle non-fiction, but I'm also a lover (and editor!) of romance, with a focus on queer stories.

I am so happy that I made the choice to work with Madeline on editing my book. She honestly made the process so easy. She was so kind and answered all my questions that I had ( and I had a lot of questions since writing a book and going through this process is all new to me). Her communication wa...
