Overview
You’ve written a book - congratulations! I’d love to help you polish it so it really shines. I am a copy editor and proofreader with a decade of experience editing books for all major publishing houses, including 10 New York Times bestsellers and 2 Oprah's Book Club picks.
Your story matters. I’m passionate about books of all genres, and specialize in memoir, YA, sci-fi/fantasy, LGBTQ+ fiction and non-fiction. I’m excited to show you that even the meticulous final stages of the editorial process can be fun and rewarding.
My clients appreciate my thorough approach and compassionate, direct communication. During my copy edit, I review each line and word of your manuscript with a sharp eye, providing edits that improve readability and flow, consistency and maximum impact, while remaining committed to your authentic voice. My proofreading services will provide you with a scrupulously reviewed and polished manuscript ready for the world to read.
