Indie Editor and Beta Reader | Romance Specialist I am an author and creative who has been working in the indie romance space since 2015. I have ten of my own indie romances published, and have edited more than forty other books in the last three years. -Developmental editing is my jam. I love helping authors bring the story together. -Not ready for a full developmental edit? My beta reading services are cheaper, and still give you great insight on what could bring your book to the nest level -Line editing makes sure your word choice, flow, dialogue, and punctuation are on point. -Proofreading catches those last pesky commas and typos before you publish your book. Message me to work together! Note: AI written books need not apply. I take human work only, and return the courtesy in kind.

Your novel’s first draft doesn’t have to be its final form. Your book, as uncertain as you feel about it, CAN become a book that readers can’t put down. It just needs a little shaping up. Are you starting with a list of tropes, a rough draft, or a finished manuscript that isn’t quite where you want it to be? Fear not! I am here to help you through the most treacherous part of publishing✨writing the book✨ I’m Sophia, a romance/ cozy mystery ghostwriter and developmental editor with five years of freelancing experience and four years on Upwork. With 25+ completed projects, multiple repeat clients, top-rated status, and a 100% Job Success Score, my focus has always been on one thing: helping publishers create books that perform. My romance novels for long-term clients consistently hold above 4.0 star ratings on Amazon and Goodreads. I work two ways, depending on what your project needs: As your ghostwriter, I take your concept or outline and turn it into a strong first draft, ready for professional editing. You will get interesting plots, entertaining characters, and a story that reads satisfyingly. Every book is trope-driven and familiar enough to meet reader expectations, but still fresh and original. I write contemporary romance (sweet small-town to steamy billionaire) and cozy mysteries (quirky amateur sleuths to culinary whodunits), consistently producing 10,000–15,000 words weekly, with full-length 60,000–70,000-word novels completed in about a month. As your developmental editor, I read your manuscript and tell you exactly where it’s working and where it isn’t; pacing, character arcs, plot, tropes that aren’t paying off. I give you clear, actionable solutions, not vague notes like “this needs work.” You’ll get big-picture developmental feedback, margin comments on specific scenes, and a revised manuscript with tracked changes so you stay involved in every decision. Have an AI-written draft you want to sound human? I can rewrite it in a natural voice and with better word choice, too. Here’s what separates me from other editors and ghostwriters; I know what the readers love, trope-wise, plot-wise, character-wise, and pacing-wise, and I will integrate that into your book as I edit/ghostwrite. What you get working with me: ❤️ Five years across romance and cozy mystery, with a deep understanding of market trends and reader expectations ❤️ 100% original writing, US English (adaptable to your style) ❤️ Clear, consistent communication and reliable, ahead-of-schedule delivery ❤️ A committed partner who sees every project through to the end My portfolio includes samples across multiple subgenres so you can see exactly what I’ve created for Amazon publishers and decide if it’s the right fit. If you’ve read this far, your project deserves a conversation. Send a message 📩 or click Invite Now, and let’s talk about what you’re building.

Most authors reach a point where they can no longer see their manuscript clearly. You’ve read the same chapters too many times. The scenes that felt emotionally powerful while writing may no longer land the same way on the page. Pacing issues become invisible. Repetition hides in plain sight. What sounds clear in your head may not yet be clear to your reader. That’s normal. Writing a book requires immersion. Editing a book requires distance. My role is to close the gap between the manuscript you intended to write and the experience your readers will actually have.

I’m a professional writer with 10+ years of experience, now focused on fantasy and romance ghostwriting. I care a lot about whether something is actually engaging, not just technically well-written. Clean prose is easy. Holding attention for 400+ pages is the hard part, and that is what I aim for. I write and publish my own fiction, and my most recent completed novel has: 70,000+ reads 800+ followers 400+ pages 600+ reader comments So I’m not guessing at pacing or structure. I’ve done it, and I understand what keeps readers coming back. All fiction work is written by me. I do not use AI to generate story content. Voice, tone, and character consistency matter too much to outsource. What I can help with: Full novels (30k to 80k+ words) Fantasy romance, paranormal romance, and sci-fi Plotting and outlining Rewrites and voice matching I’m comfortable working within tropes if you have something specific in mind, or building something original from scratch. Most of my past client work has been in copywriting, editing, and AI-assisted projects, which means I’m used to adapting to different voices and expectations quickly. I communicate clearly, hit deadlines, and do not need to be chased. If you’re looking for someone who can carry a story from beginning to end and keep it interesting the whole way through, feel free to reach out.

Would your clinic, health platform, or writing project benefit from a medically trained professional who blends clinical precision with empathetic communication, calm support, and editorial finesse? With 20+ years of experience as a surgical and clinic nurse at Kaiser Permanente, my insight earned from thousands of real-life patient interactions will support your projects. From procedure rooms to post-op care, your content, admin systems, or written work will be grounded in both medical accuracy and clarity — no need to explain the difference between an IV and an EKG or how to talk to a patient who’s scared. Your projects may also benefit from my broader passions: solo travel across Europe, the study of French and other languages, a lifelong love of reading and storytelling, a sharp eye for tone and detail, plus a music degree in the string bass. That background helps me communicate in a way that’s both technically sound and deeply human — supporting professionals, patients, and writers alike. Continue reading for specific ways I can help your work thrive and your message land with clarity and care. ~Medical Writing & Patient Education~ Healthcare communication demands more than textbook knowledge — it requires compassion, discernment and the ability to meet readers where they are. By helping patients navigate surgery, recovery, and outpatient care for decades, your educational materials will reflect the real needs and real questions people face when dealing with procedures, diagnoses, or important wellness decisions. Whether it’s a one-sheet for clinic patients or long-form health content for a broader audience, your readers receive calm, easy-to-understand information that empowers rather than overwhelms. Combining my nursing background with strong skills in health copywriting and patient education means you’ll get content that serves both your audience and your team. Having guided thousands of patients through pre-op jitters and post-op instructions, your projects will benefit from medical writing that turns fear into understanding — and instructions into action. Let’s work together to create patient-facing content that supports understanding, confidence, and better outcomes. Please see my portfolio for more examples of my work. ~Medical Virtual Assistant & Healthcare Admin Support~ Behind every great provider, wellness program, or telehealth platform is someone who keeps the details on track and the tone aligned. Navigating 20+ years in my career managing clinical workflows, reviewing medical transcription, and supporting patients in high-pressure settings, your practice will benefit from a medical virtual assistant who already understands the pace and privacy needs of care delivery. From refining clinical document review materials to transforming post-visit notes into checklists or plain-language summaries, you can count on my initiative and adaptability to your tasks. With firsthand knowledge of HIPAA compliance and administrative processes, expect projects with less overwhelm for you and your clients alike. Day in-day out through decades in clinical environments, your administrative workflows will gain a trusted assistant with real-world judgment, calm communication, and deep familiarity with healthcare admin support systems. If your project needs a VA who is detail-oriented, kind under pressure, and fluent in health operations, let’s talk. ~Beta Reading & Proofreading for Impact~ As a lifelong book lover, narrative listener, and self-proclaimed grammar sleuth, you’ll receive feedback that’s precise, encouraging, and deeply attuned to voice and rhythm. Bringing a lifetime of editing instructions, summaries, and patient guidance, your writing will benefit from line editing and content editing that balances clarity with compassion — whether you’re working on a novel, a blog, or a coaching program. If you’re looking for someone to review your writing with both care and candor, I offer beta reading and grammar editing that supports your story, in your voice, while catching what others miss. Let’s take your work from draft to polished — with thoughtful critique, technical clean-up, and a focus on flow. If you’re ready for feedback that’s kind, honest, and sharp as a scalpel, I’m here to help bring your project to life. For a freelance partner who brings medical integrity, editorial precision, and a deeply human touch to everything from clinic materials to creative manuscripts, click “Hire” to get started.
