Ocean Milan

Ocean Milan – Editor

I'm a queer editor who has been proofreading books for ten years. I'm dedicated to making a book the best it can possibly be.

Overview

I've been proofreading for ten years, both through freelance work and through New Harbinger Publications and Two Birds Editing. I'm especially experienced with self-help and health books, but I'm also very passionate about fantasy/sci-fi - though no matter what genre, as long as there is passion in the writing, I will have passion in my editing!

It's very important to me to support the queer and POC communities, as a trans woman of color myself. I believe that writing is one of our best ways of letting our voices be heard and represented, and helping others to express themselves is my favorite part of working as an editor.

I use she/her pronouns.
