I was born into a passel of writers and storytellers and other meticulous folks who highlight grammatical mistakes in library paperbacks.
“When I somehow completed my first book, I decided to self-publish. I was seventy-four, then, and doubted I could afford to wait around going the agent/publisher route (plus, there’s the little matter of actually getting an agent/publisher). As I sat there, scratching my head about my next step, a friend suggested R.M. Snider (or Rachel to us less-sophisticated types). I contacted her, and for a very nominal fee (I won’t say how much, mainly because I can’t remember – did I mention I was seventy-four?), she graciously took on the job. I could go into great detail about all she did to whip that book into shape (another fib; I can’t remember), and how wonderful the formatting looked when she finished, but I won’t. Instead, I’ll say that, when I finished my second book, I flew straight to Rachel to format that one, too. You can see the results, and judge for yourself, by typing my last name on the Amazon search bar. Now, if you’ll excuse me, it’s past my bedtime.”

“I can’t sing enough praises for Rachel’s skill as a proofreader and formatter. Reasonable pricing & professional work. She’s a superb author herself and very knowledgeable about what it takes to polish the quality of your manuscript for today’s competitive industry.”
Judy Harrington, author of A.B.I.L. and A.B.I.L. Returns
“Rachel worked with me to format my book of short stories, Early Morning in the Land of Dreams. Beyond being a meticulous formatter, she asked thoughtful questions that helped me get the look I wanted. She is also a wealth of knowledge and offered support during the entire process. Finally, she read through my manuscript to make sure there were no grammatical or typographical errors. Of course, I had already had my manuscript edited and proofread; however, this service gave me one more layer of protection. I couldn’t recommend Rachel more. She did a fantastic job for me.”

I perform copy editing, proofreading, editorial assessment, ghostwriting, and paperback and Kindle eBook formatting for other authors.
