Summary

Need an Editor for Reverse Harem, Omegaverse & Contemporary Romance I'm looking for an amazing editor to join my team on an ongoing basis. I publish primarily Reverse Harem romance, with a mix of Omegaverse, paranormal, and contemporary small-town stories. My books are high heat with strong emotional arcs, found family, humor, and plenty of spice. I can offer 1-2 books per month, with most novels falling between 75k and 110k words. Edits will be performed in Word using Track Changes. Familiarity with the Chicago Manual of Style is a must. I'm looking for someone who communicates well, responds reasonably quickly, and can occasionally accommodate a faster turnaround when needed. I value editors who are thoughtful, detail-oriented, and enjoy collaborating as part of a long-term team. Requirements: Native English speaker with fluent written English Exceptional grasp of grammar, punctuation, and style Experience editing fiction, preferably romance Comfortable editing explicit scenes and multiple POVs Experience with Word Track Changes and CMOS Rates: Line/Copy Editing: $0.004/word Typical turnaround: 10 days Proofreading: $0.002/word Typical turnaround: 5 days I realize these rates are below industry standards, but I offer steady, reliable work and am hoping to build lasting relationships with editors who love romance as much as I do. Please apply with: Your experience level and education Your experience with RH, Omegaverse, paranormal romance, or spicy contemporary romance A recent one-page editing sample, if available Application questions: In your opinion, what makes a great opening chapter? What editing jobs have you had in the past? How many full-length fiction novels have you edited? Are you comfortable editing explicit scenes and multiple POVs? In your own words, what is the difference between a line/copy edit and a proofread? What do you expect to do during each stage? I look forward to hearing from you!
