Your manuscript is finished, but something is not working. The structure drags, the pacing feels off, or the feedback you keep getting is too vague to actually use. That is the exact problem I solve. I work with fiction and nonfiction authors across romance, fantasy, self-help, parenting, memoir, and business books. Every written review on my profile is 5 stars, and my clients regularly come back for their next book. Can I handle your manuscript? If it is a novel or a nonfiction book, yes. Recent projects include a supernatural romance novel, a 45,000-word self-help manuscript, an ADHD parenting guide polished and made KDP-ready, and a children's chapter book ghostwritten from concept to completion. How do I work? I start with an editorial report so you see exactly what needs fixing and why; then I edit with clear BEFORE and AFTER notes so you can see every change and the reason behind it. One client called that report alone "golden." How long does it take? One to three weeks for most manuscripts, depending on length. What does it cost? $0.01 per word for developmental and line editing, $0.007 per word for copy editing and proofreading, or $25 per hour. And I reply fast, usually within a few hours. I work best with self-publishing authors, coaches, and first-time writers who have a finished or nearly finished draft and want it publication-ready without losing their voice. Still writing, or only have notes and ideas? I also ghostwrite fiction and nonfiction from your outlines, interviews, or voice recordings, and my ghostwriting clients say I add depth while keeping the story fully theirs. I am currently taking on new projects. Message me with your genre, word count, and where you feel stuck, and I will give you an honest assessment with a clear next step. I provide developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, proofreading, and manuscript critique for fiction and nonfiction books, including romance, fantasy, mystery, self-help, memoir, and business manuscripts. My editorial reports cover structure, pacing, character development, clarity, and readability, and I prepare books for KDP self-publishing with ebook formatting and final proofreading.

I’m an experienced postdoctoral scientist with a research background spanning the chemical and life sciences. As a freelancer, I’ve written or edited many journal manuscripts, grant applications, newsletters and more. The main writing/editing jobs I can help you with include: • Peer-reviewed journal articles. • Grant applications, especially for Innovate UK. • Scientific review articles (website content and journal manuscripts). I aim to write clear, engaging, well-researched and accurate material that’s tailored to your target audience, whether that be academic readers, grant reviewers or website visitors. As an editor, I work with clients to achieve similar goals while ensuring compliance with journal author guidelines or relevant style guides (such as editing for British English or US English). Since June 2023, I’ve worked as lead writer on 12 Innovate UK applications (including one Smart Grant that received funding, winning a Biomedical Catalyst bid and another that was invited to interview). While in academia, I wrote or contributed to research grants for various funding bodies including BBSRC, MRC, EPSRC, Wellcome Trust and Cancer Research UK. My academic research career generated over 30 peer-reviewed journal articles (including 17 as first or last author), and also gave me considerable experience in writing/reviewing papers and grant applications. My academic publications span the areas of organic chemistry, biochemistry and drug discovery, and currently have over 1,000 combined citations (Google Scholar). I’ve regularly assisted Masters and PhD students with their dissertations by providing proofreading and mentoring services, so if you need support with your academic writing, I’d like to help! I’ve built up a broad knowledge base across the chemical, biomedical and life sciences, gained through working on a diverse range of research projects over the years (with various links across academia and industry) and collaborating with many freelance clients. I’m highly familiar with reviewing and searching the scientific literature to research a topic in depth, then producing concise writing based on this if required (see portfolio for examples). My main areas of scientific interest are biochemistry and molecular biology, enzymology, organic and medicinal chemistry, drug discovery, and screening assay design. From my wider reading, I have additional knowledge in DNA damage/repair, cell biology, biomedical science, cancer research and issues relating to diet and nutrition. Previous Upwork jobs have been varied and have covered topics including medicine, finance, business, recruitment, real estate and education.
