Writing isn't easy. And writing a book can feel like climbing a mountain — in a whiteout. But you don't have to write your book completely on your own and dance in the ring with your self-doubt. You also don't have to surrender to the pull of an LLM. (It turns out they actually make writing harder.)
As a book, ebook, and content editor with 15 years of experience, I can help you find the subtle issues that may be holding your manuscript back. I’ll evaluate your current draft and work with you to boost your confidence, help you see the potential in your work, and help make the writing process smoother. I can also partner with you when needed to help you get your book manuscript to the finish line if you're short on time — or just stuck.
PLEASE NOTE: I do not use AI or editing software of any kind in my editing work. My approach relies on my experience and skill, and is 100% human 🙂
I CAN HELP YOU WITH THINGS LIKE:
- Concept and content development
- Finding a new path for your work when something's not working
- Helping you find — and maintain — your authentic voice
- Repairing or improving your current book manuscript's structure
- Improving readability, tone, and pacing
- Improving clarity and flow
- Addressing clichés and inconsistencies
- Ensuring your manuscript is right for your ideal audience
- Advice, support, and resources when needed
- Getting unstuck
- Staying committed
- Staying on schedule
Plus, I can fully copy edit and proofread your manuscript when your final draft is ready!
A HIGH-LEVEL OVERVIEW OF WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
The process varies depending on the current status of your book project and your schedule, but at minimum, you can expect:
- Up to two check-ins per week (either by email/messaging or video call
- Up to two online collabs per week, as needed, where you can ask questions, bounce off ideas, or get 1:1 help with sticking points as you write
YOUR SOURCE FOR KIND, HONEST GUIDANCE
My primary goals are to help you see what’s possible in your work, and to help you make your book manuscript the best it can be.
I recognize and respect intention. I will make sure your book or ebook is something you can truly be proud of.
WE'RE A GOOD MATCH IF:
- You are open to thoughtful, honest feedback
- You are open to new ways of approaching your writing
- You are open to seeing your work from a variety of angles or perspectives
- You fully embrace editing as a key part of making your book great.
I guarantee that your final draft will have the same level of quality as books published at traditional publishing houses. It will be developed keeping your goals in mind. It will also be authentic, clear, and virtually free of grammatical errors and typos.
👉 PlEASE NOTE: Only book manuscripts in the following categories will be accepted: Sales and Marketing (lead magnets for small businesses), General Nonfiction, Memoir, Literary Fiction, Upmarket Fiction
Ready to chat? I'd love to help you get your book done!

Have a book idea but aren’t sure how to turn it into a clear, structured manuscript?
For over eight years, I’ve helped authors shape ideas, rough notes, and early AI drafts into publication-ready books that readers engage with from cover to cover. As a ghostwriter, book coach, and editor, I guide your manuscript from concept to completion so you can publish with confidence.
Whether you’re writing a memoir about your life or a book about leadership, psychology, business, philosophy, wellness, or self-development, I help you express your ideas with clarity, purpose, and human-centred storytelling.
Most book projects are structured as fixed-price milestones based on the stage of the manuscript. This keeps the process clear and predictable for both of us.
Many authors I work with want more than a finished manuscript. They want a book that strengthens their authority, supports their brand, and creates opportunities for speaking and thought leadership.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐲 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠
💬 “Robert helped us refine the flow of our manuscript and was incredibly easy to work with, resulting in publishing ahead of schedule. He’s a fantastic collaborator—highly recommend!”
💬 “Robert's writing is engaging, humorous, and insightful. I will definitely hire him again.”
💬 “WOW. WOW. WOW. Robert went above and beyond all expectations, and even beyond what I thought was possible. Amazing job. I would hire Robert again. He took a very complicated topic and turned the writing and explanations into a work of art that read seamlessly.”
𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰-𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐆𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬
Many authors find it far easier to speak about their ideas than to sit down and write them.
I use a structured interview process to capture your stories, expertise, and pivotal moments. Through guided conversations, I draw out the experiences and insights behind your message.
You speak naturally about your ideas while I turn those conversations into clear, engaging chapters that reflect your voice.
𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝟐𝟎-𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥
If you're working on a book and want expert input, send me a message and request a free consultation.
During the call we can:
• Discuss your book idea
• Review your outline or manuscript
• Identify structural challenges
• Map out the next steps for the project
There's no obligation and whatever you decide next, you’ll leave the conversation with a clear direction for your book.
𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐈 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡
I work with people who have ideas but need help turning them into a structured book. Typical clients include:
• Authors who want to turn their life story, experiences, or expertise into a memoir
• Coaches writing an authority-building book to grow their platform
• Leaders and professionals turning expertise into a non-fiction manuscript
• Founders who want a book to support their brand or thought leadership
• Experts with notes, recordings, or rough drafts who want to shape them into a finished book
• Professionals who want a book to support speaking opportunities and long-term legacy
Whatever your background or experience, I start by understanding your audience, your goals, and your vision.
𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐈 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭
If you already have a draft, I refine the manuscript so it reads clearly and flows naturally.
Many authors now arrive with manuscripts created using tools like ChatGPT or other AI writing systems. AI can generate a starting point, yet turning those pages into a strong book still requires careful human editing and structure.
Editing can include:
• Developmental editing
• Line and copy editing
• Improving clarity and flow
• Restructuring chapters and sections
• Removing repetition and filler
• Strengthening the author’s voice
• Connecting ideas across chapters
• Ensuring the manuscript reads smoothly from beginning to end
The result reads like a compelling human-written book rather than a collection of generated pages.
Clients hire me because I’m passionate, committed to the process, easy to collaborate with, and know how to ask the right questions that bring a book to life. I genuinely love this work.
Send me a message and tell me about the book you're planning or the draft you're developing. I’m happy to discuss your project and help you decide on the next steps.
I look forward to exceeding your expectations.

I'm a ghostwriter who can help you write your personal or professional book. I can interview you and transcribe your words, and then develop a written narrative from the transcription, or I can use your personal notes, pre-written chapters, or previously published website or blog posts to produce the book or other copy you'd like to write. I can also use a combination of these things to create the final book.
I have 25 years of experience in writing, editing, proofreading, ghostwriting, teaching writing, leading life writing/biography workshops, book marketing, book formatting, book cover design, and self-publishing on Amazon. I've helped people complete their book projects through ghostwriting, book coaching, developmental editing. and book publishing support.
Using good organization, excellent communication, and a detail-oriented approach, I have provided coaching and editing for 20+ books and manuscripts, which are a mix of biography and other topics (business, real estate, entrepreneurship, education, self-help, and meditation).
Some testimonials from my past clients:
“Domini helped me write my personal memoir. She helped me transform my scraps of notes, old memories, and letters into a coherent personal life story.

“Domini did a superb job creating a 10,000-word summary of a classic leadership book. Her writing is exceptional and exceeded my high expectations of what a seasoned, professional writer should be capable of.

WELL DONE, DOMINI!" —Michael E., leadership coach

Hi, I’m Fred Aceves. I'm an author and passionate book editor and coach.
As a published author with HarperCollins, my work has been honored with multiple accolades.
I know firsthand how deeply personal and challenging the writing process can be. That’s why I bring the same care and dedication to my clients’ work as I do to my own. Whether you're just starting out or preparing your manuscript for submission or publication, I’m here to help you bring your vision to life.
While I don't use AI in my own editing work, I stay current on AI developments and understand its ethical use, helping writers navigate tools that support research or logistics without compromising their personal voice and expression.
Below, you’ll find the services I offer. Not sure which one fits your needs? Just send me a message with a bit about your project and where you are in the process. I’ll point you in the right direction—even if that means recommending someone else.
DEVELOPMENTAL EDITING
Also known as substantive or content editing, this is where we shape the big picture of your book.
For novelists: I focus on the essential storytelling elements—plot, structure, character development, pacing, setting, conflict, tone, and theme. Early drafts often need reworking or reshuffling, and I’ll help you strengthen what’s working while identifying what can be cut or improved.
For nonfiction authors: I can help you build a clear, compelling structure, fine-tune your argument, and enhance your book’s flow. I’ll also help with chapter titles, subheadings, and ways to present information (or data) more clearly and visually.
LINE EDITING & COPY EDITING
Many editors specialize in one or the other—I offer both. That means more cohesive, efficient editing—and better value for you.
Line Editing: I’ll help you polish your prose on a sentence level, improving clarity, flow, rhythm, and tone. This is about making your writing sing.
Copy Editing: I’ll also address grammar, punctuation, spelling, consistency, and accuracy.
BOOK COACHING
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just unsure where to begin, book coaching might be exactly what you need.
Does any of the following resonate?
I want to write a book, but I don’t know how to start.
I’ve started—but I can’t seem to finish.
The plot or structure feels like a mess.
I’m creatively stuck.
I’ve got pages of notes, but no clear path forward.
I wonder if I have what it takes or if anyone will even want to read it.
You’re not alone—and you don’t have to do it alone. As your coach, I’ll help you:
• Build a clear roadmap for your book
• Set (and meet!) consistent writing goals
• Get regular, personalized feedback
• Brainstorm and troubleshoot ideas
• Stay motivated and confident
• Move from idea to finished manuscript
Ready to take the next step? Get in touch, and let’s talk about how we can work together.
The following is just some of my clients' feedback that you can find in my Upwork history:
"Fred is a very accomplished, high-level editor with deep experience in editing nonfiction. I worked with Fred early in the conception state of writing my book and he eventually helped lead me towards a breakthrough that set me on the right path to finishing the book to great reviews."
- Chris Shaver, author of Relationship Needs: Ten Shortcuts
"Wonderful feedback and guidance helping me work through the content doubts I had. Always reliable, always offering valuable insights on how to progress. I highly recommend him."
- Henrik Jensen, author of Masculine Meditations
"Fred was outstanding to work with. An expert editor and it was great communicating with him. He totally got what I needed and delivered. Highly, highly recommend."
- James A. Cosby, author of Rock Music, Authority and Western Culture
"Fred has not only helped me ask the right questions about a journey I’ve never navigated before, but he’s also provided helpful resources along the way. These have made the entire process feel much more approachable and manageable. His expertise and support have been invaluable to my progress."
- Dan Pardi, MS, PhD, CEO of Vivendi Health and author of the forthcoming What is Health?
"Fred is thorough, patient, and committed to a level of quality that pushes you to rise to meet it. He's an editor who respects both your intention as a writer and the intelligence of your reader. Highly recommended."
- Brandon Boyd, author of Undomesticated
"Fred did an amazing job editing some essays for me. He took the initiative to ask some great questions that took the piece to the next level."
- Larry Tadlock, memoirist and stand-up comedian

***Owner of Ink Worthy Books, a full-service editorial and publication company providing cover-to-cover services and support to self-publishing authors of soulful nonfiction.***
This is my passion, my heart’s work, and what makes me a happy camper. It is not merely my “job.” With more than thirteen years of writing, editing, and publishing experience, I have built my business around helping self-motivated writers take their ideas all the way to publication and beyond. At Ink Worthy Books, we believe that every book has the power to change the world.
As a trained nonfiction book coach and developmental editor, I lead a group of skilled professionals who specialize in book editing, design, and marketing. This means that we can support an author’s entire project without risking quality due to the overworked eyeballs of one professional. This approach to self-publishing support saves you hours of searching for skilled pros in the world of one-and-done freelance giggers and alleviates the stress of managing all the details which go into publishing a book.
In addition to an array of community and coaching support options, IWB’s hands-on services fall into five categories:
Evaluate - Not certain what your story needs? We offer (free!) creative consult calls along with manuscript reviews to help you determine the best next step. This process saves writers both time and money because they leave with a clear idea of how to move their project forward and without having to guess.
Edit - We offer three types of editing, depending on the project’s need: developmental editing, line editing, and copy editing. Because these terms are sometimes used inconsistently in the industry, we will discuss your book’s needs in detail to ensure you are confident in what type of editing support you will be receiving.
Design - Our design team creates the high quality cover and interior files for all written formats (ebook, soft cover, and hardcover), all to the specification of the particular platform the writer is publishing on. This process also includes a final proofread, which ensures your book shines prior to publishing.
Publication Prep - The Ink Worthy Books team helps self-publishing authors manage ALL the loose ends that need attention to prepare to publish their book: writing your author bio, crafting the back cover description and Amazon description, pricing and ISBN support, author website creation, optimization of the book’s Amazon profile, and much more! Rest assured, we can help with every step of the way!
Marketing - We support writers in creating a marketing and promotion plan and materials to promote their book both leading up to and following publication.
If you are looking for a line or copy edit of your manuscript draft, please see my specialized profiles for more details on how I can help!
I look forward to connecting with you soon!
