My goal as an editor is to provide quality work in a timely manner that doesn't detract from the writer's natural voice, and keeps content as close to the original as possible. I love helping long-term clients weed out good writing, decide on an exciting plot, and polish their final project. I have an extensive background specifically in romance, thriller, horror, paranormal, and contemporary fiction. I've also worked on several memoir and poetry projects. While I do occasionally edit nonfiction, it depends on the topic. I am currently available for the following services: - Proofreading - General edit - Developmental edit - Translation edit - Plot Outlining - Book Blurbs & Descriptions Please send a message with your project's genre and word count to discuss pricing. If you are interested in working together and have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Thanks!
