"Loved working with Jillian. Her performance and quality of work are exceptional!" "Jillian does amazing work for us!

A hardworking 2009 New York University summa cum laude graduate with a major in English and a minor in Dramatic Literature, I have demonstrated success in a broad range of writing and editorial-related work responsibilities for over a decade. Under the pen name Jillian Larkin I wrote the second and third novels in the young-adult historical romance THE FLAPPERS series, which taught me a great deal about fiction writing, research, and sticking to tight deadlines. From 2014 to 2018 I worked as a researcher for the game show, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire", where I scoured reference books and the internet to find solid sources to back up questions and helped edit each question for both grammatical errors and to minimize litigation risk. I have also written several freelance articles for sites like Cracked.com and TopTenz.net over the years and helped various editing clients to prepare their novels for querying or self-publication. I take a great deal of pride in the quality of my work. In both my writing and editing I have a high level of attention to detail and know I will be able to help make your vision for your project become a reality.

Let me help you get to the next step of publishing your book or polish your professional documents for social media! I am a published author, a professional editor, and I own a publishing company called Get It Write Publishing. As an editor, I work with authors and professionals to improve the quality of their written work, such as books, blogs and website content. I will edit and proofread for punctuation, grammar, word usage, spelling, clarity, flow, and continuity. In each sentence, I examine the topic, writing style, and language used, as well as the paragraph style. My experience includes over six years of editing children’s picture books and chapter books, full-length fiction and non-fiction, and poetry. I’ve edited romance, mystery, fantasy, historical, erotica, self-help, and Christian. A Few Testimonies (from Get It Write): “Melanie went ABOVE AND BEYOND my expectations. When I began, I had zero idea what to do (my first book!). Melanie walked me through everything! She was so helpful and easy to ask anything! My book would not have been the same without Melanie. I will 100% use Melanie again. I couldn’t imagine using any other editor!” (editing, formatting, self-publishing a children’s book) “I spent $1300 at another editing service to get my book edited. It’s safe to say that my money was wasted. Melanie Lopata went above and beyond for a fraction of the cost. I HIGHLY recommend Melanie and her editing services! She takes the time to actually read your manuscript and it definitely showed.” (editing, formatting full-length children’s chapter book)GrammarChicago Manual of StyleBook EditingStory EditingBlog WritingDocument FormattingLine EditingCopy EditingDevelopmental EditingWritingProofreadingTrack ChangesContent EditingBook WritingEditing & ProofreadingBlog Content - $55 hourly
