Hitting that "publish" button is a real rush, leaving you feeling vulnerable. Many authors find the entire process challenging and a bit confusing. Others don't know where to start. Sometimes you just want to find someone who has been through the ropes, made some common newbie mistakes, and knows how to streamline the process for others.

    Welcome to my page. Thank you for stopping by and considering me for your project. Let me help you get a professional, error-free manuscript into your readers' hands. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗗𝗢 𝗜 𝗕𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗬𝗢𝗨? ➤ I have an English degree and I graduated with honors. I attended university through a full-ride academic scholarship. This attests to my strong work ethic and my detail-oriented personality. I will read through your manuscript with an educated eye and with a razor sharp focus. ➤ I'm a voracious reader. When I'm not busy with editing projects, I read 20 or more novels a month, and I often start and finish a book within an evening. I most often read romance, but I also enjoy fantasy, science fiction, and occasionally horror. As I beta your work, I will provide comments throughout your manuscript targeting the viability and marketability of your storyline and characters from the perspective of a paying customer. Is your plot compelling and cohesive? Do your characters and their evolution fascinate me and make me want to read more? Does your concept make me want to hit the one-click button on my Kindle at ten o'clock at night instead of getting much needed sleep? ➤ I come to you with the experience of a self-published author. I published several short stories under a pseudonym through Kindle Direct Publishing and Smashwords. My stories have been downloaded more than 20,000 times. ➤ I'm new to Upwork, but I have edited more than 1,250,000 words for self-published as well as traditionally published authors following the Chicago Manual of Style. People enjoy collaborating with me as I'm respectful yet honest. You'll also find my response times are quick, likely much quicker than average, as I believe being responsive is the foundation of respect and trust with a client. 𝗠𝗬 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗦: ➤ I use the terms 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭 and 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐚 interchangeably to mean a deeper dive into your manuscript. 𝐈 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 .𝟎𝟎𝟯 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠. I will read your manuscript aloud as I edit to hear the cadence of your story. I do not use AI. I will use Track Changes and insert relevant, thoughtful comments throughout your manuscript. 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲: - Spelling - Punctuation - Verb Tense - Point of View inconsistencies - Overused and repetitive adjectives and adverbs - Correct homophone usage 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: - Character development - Plot and plot holes - World building/setting - Pacing and flow - Reader's suspension of disbelief ➤ I use the term 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 to mean the step after edits are complete when the manuscript undergoes a final grammatical check before publishing. 𝐈 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 .𝟎𝟎𝟭𝟱 𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠. I do not use AI. My focus will be grammar, I will primarily use Track Changes, and I will insert very few comments. ➤ If you would like multiple rounds of edits for your manuscript, I am happy to accommodate you, but I will need to charge for each round. Many authors utilize a round of editing followed by a final round of proofreading. ➤ I 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 provide formatting, book cover design, or book promotion. ➤ I most often utilize Microsoft Word or Google Docs. If you have a different preference, I'm a quick learner and I will do my best to accommodate your needs. I am also happy to sign an NDA if needed. Thank you for your time, and best wishes in your writing endeavors.
