'Lo potential clients, I'm a passionate editor waiting to get my delicate but steely fingers and brains on some fine text works that I can help adapt, enhance, modulate or transform into something special. All while nourishing your voice between the lines and making sure that's what gets heard (or rather, read) in the end. What I offer: - Developmental Editing (alias Content Editing) - Copy Editing (alias Line Editing) - Proofreading Let's get together soon. Until then xoxo

Hi :) I’m Jasmin, a bilingual (German/English) editor, writer, and producer with a background in publishing and film. I specialise in editing, proofreading, localisation, and ghostwriting, helping authors, brands, and creatives shape and communicate their ideas clearly across languages and formats. My work goes beyond correcting text: I focus on voice, storytelling, and emotional impact, whether it’s a novel, script, or digital content. I can support you with: - Developmental Editing (story, structure, pacing) - Proofreading & Line Editing - Localisation (German ↔ English, culturally accurate & natural) - Ghostwriting (articles, blogs, books & long-form content) - Social Media Content (captions, storytelling, tone of voice) - AI content editing & evaluation Through my background in publishing and as co-founder of a film production company, I bring a strong understanding of storytelling, audience, and market positioning to every project. I’ve also worked for a wide range of brands to help them with their social media channels! If you’re looking for someone who can shape your voice, refine your message, and bring your ideas to life, I’d love to hear about your project. Looking forward to working together :)
