Overview
In copy editing, my goal is to help you make the best possible version of your book, polishing any rough patches while allowing your voice and message to truly shine. I'll work with you to identify your style preferences and make sure they're applied consistently so that you have a manuscript that's clean and still truly reflects your passion and creativity.
