I can help you determine where to start: • Developmental Editing and Manuscript Assessments: Big-picture feedback on structure, organization, pacing, character development, argument clarity, and content accuracy • Line + Copyediting: Sentence-level refinement to enhance voice, flow, clarity, and emotional resonance, plus the technical corrections of copyediting • Copyediting: Grammar and syntax corrections for consistency and technical accuracy using the Chicago Manual of Style • Proofreading: Final polish and error detection before submission or publication • APA 7 Support: Consistency of references and in-text citations in APA style for dissertations 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗘𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 Across genres, I specialize in manuscripts addressing themes of trauma, healing, identity, healthcare, family systems and relationships, social issues, aging, chronic illness, grief, education, and life transitions.
