Whether you're writing your first book or your tenth, I'm here to help you turn your manuscript into a polished, professional, publishable work—and guide you through every step of getting it into readers' hands. For the past eight years, I've worked with authors across genres and formats: fiction writers building historical novels, romantasy, middle-grade fantasy, and contemporary romance; non-fiction authors creating workbooks, memoirs, and thought-leadership books; and creatives designing custom journals and guided writing resources. No matter what you're working on, my goal is the same: to help you create something you're proud of—something that looks great, reads flawlessly, and connects with your audience. A Note on AI: All editing, writing, and design work is done by me personally—no AI tools are used in the editorial or creative process. When you work with me, you're getting a human eye, human judgment, and a genuine understanding of your voice and story. My Services Include: Developmental Editing I refine story structure, pacing, tone, and style while preserving your voice. For fiction, I strengthen character depth, dialogue, and plot consistency (I love a well-placed twist!). For non-fiction, I clarify flow, argument, and reader engagement. Line Editing Once the structure is solid, I work sentence by sentence—sharpening word choice, rhythm, and clarity so your prose reads smoothly and consistently from page to page, without losing your voice. Book Coaching & Publishing Guidance– Confused about whether to self-publish or go traditional? Not sure how to navigate Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or Barnes & Noble Press? I'll walk you through your options step-by-step via video call, helping you choose the publishing route that's right for your goals, timeline, and budget. Typesetting / Interior Layout Design – Professionally formatted interiors ready for print and digital distribution—clean, readable, and tailored to your genre. Whether it's a novel, a workbook, or a guided journal, I make sure your book looks as good as it reads. Custom Cover Design– Eye-catching, market-ready covers that attract your ideal readers. Designed using Canva, InDesign, and other professional tools—always print- and upload-ready. Book Proposal & Query Letter Writing– If you're seeking a traditional publishing deal, I'll write a standout book proposal and query letter package that aligns with publisher expectations and showcases your book's unique hook. Publishing Process Management– From manuscript finalization to distribution setup, I can manage the logistics of self-publishing so you can focus on writing and marketing your book. What You Can Expect: I start by reviewing a sample of your manuscript or project so I can tailor my approach to what you need. I provide a detailed quote and timeline—and then dive right in. You'll receive clear, constructive feedback directly in your manuscript, plus an Editor's Report summarizing key insights and recommendations. Need help implementing changes or making publishing decisions? I also offer video consultations where we brainstorm edits, rework chapters, discuss cover design, compare publishing platforms, and build your launch strategy. So, why should you want to work with me? As a published author and experienced editor, I understand how personal and emotional the writing journey can be. My approach is collaborative, encouraging, and always focused on helping your book reach its fullest potential—without ever losing your voice. Whether you're polishing a sci-fi thriller, designing a self-care workbook, formatting a romance series for KDP, or trying to figure out if traditional publishing is right for you, I'm here to make the process not just achievable, but enjoyable. Let's get started! I'm open for consultations!

I find the plot holes, structural issues, sentence-level errors, and punctuation mishaps that distract readers, agents, and acquiring editors from understanding and appreciating your protagonist's journey. YOU SHOULD HIRE ME IF YOU... 🤝 ... just finished your first manuscript and don't know where to go from here. 🤝 ... received a plot outline from a ghostwriter and want to know if it's any good. 🤝 ... aren't sure what genre(s) and subgenre(s) best fit your work. 🤝 ... have a genre-bending project that needs a second pair of eyes. 🤝 ... read a review that made you reconsider writing as a hobby or career. 🤝 ... haven't written in a long time and want an unbiased critique of your work. 🤝 ... need help with macro-level tasks, such as plotting a series, developing strong characters, writing convincing dialogue, etc. 🤝 ... want to develop a style sheet to ensure consistency across multiple writers, editors, and books. 🤝 ... speak English as a second language and want a copy editor to double-check your work. 🤝 ... composed your query letter and need a final review of your manuscript to make sure all the t's are crossed and i's are dotted. 🤝 ... don't know the difference between proofreading and beta reading, but are certain your book needs a doctor TODAY. Editing is a collaborative process, and I look forward to working with you to bring out the best in your fiction. WE WON'T BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU... ❌ ... have a screenplay, poetry chapbook, or work of nonfiction that needs assessment. ❌ ... are looking for someone to write your academic essay or circumvent plagiarism detectors for you. ❌ ... use AI writing and editing tools to create a product. ❌ ... want someone to tell you only what you want to hear. ❌ ... aren't interested in constructive criticism. 📚 Ready to get started?
