Copy Editing for Christian Memoir

Posted 5 days ago

Summary

Hello, I am inviting you to look at my project because of your high-level book editing background. I have a completed 16,500-word memoir draft titled In His Image that explores deep generational trauma and spiritual faith. It relies heavily on tight, poetic imagery and structural motifs (including recycled aluminum cans, a billfold, a knife, a cross, and a thematic tie-in to the ruins of Pompeii).I am seeking a fixed-price developmental and line edit to help sharpen the pacing and transitions while fiercely preserving my unique voice. I am currently running a paid sample edit of Chapter 1 (approx. 600 words) for top candidates. Please let me know your flat-rate fee for a 16,500-word manuscript evaluation if you are interested. Thank you!
