Are you looking for a reliable, detail-oriented editor with the expertise to make your work the best it can be?
You have something important to share with the world (an idea, story, product, or brand). But unless you communicate it clearly, compellingly, and free of distracting typos, you won’t reach your audience.
You need an editor who offers thorough feedback in a timely manner, who is dedicated to the work you’ve already started.
⭐Specializations: Christian nonfiction proofreading, Christian editing, Bible, theology
⭐Other areas of interest: Nonfiction proofreading for mental health, memoir, self-help, business, real estate, and sports. Full-length manuscripts, blogs, and Substack newsletters.
⭐If you want to work with me, you should know:
-I have a Bachelor’s in English.
-I am a former librarian, former writing tutor, and natural researcher.
-I have a special interest in Christian writing and Christian editing. I have a Bachelor's in Biblical Studies.
-Clear communication is crucial. You can expect me to respond in a timely manner and meet deadlines. In turn, I look for clients who clearly set expectations and keep an open line of communication.
-I offer developmental edits for style, readability, and flow as well as line editing and proofreading services.
-I edit nonfiction manuscripts, blogs, business writing, website copy, and more.
-I will ask questions and do my own research to ensure I am offering relevant edits and matching your existing tone.

Book Editor & Ghostwriter | Developmental | Line | Copy | KDP Formatting
Most authors come to me after realizing the same thing: a talented writer and a publication-ready manuscript are not the same thing.
I've worked with 25+ authors across fiction and nonfiction. The gap between the two is almost never about talent. It's structure. Voice. Consistency. The things a good editor catches before a publisher or reader does.
My background is a little unusual. Before books, I was a field journalist and correspondent, an information assurance manager at Leidos, and an analyst with the FBI. That history shows up in how I read. I notice what's missing from a narrative. I flag accuracy and consistency problems that slip past readers who aren't trained to look. I think at the structural level, whether that's plot or argument, because that's how I was trained to work with documents. A Christian fiction novel gets the same attention I once gave federal-level work.
What I do:
Ghostwriting
For authors, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders who have the ideas and need someone to build the manuscript. I work from conversations, emails, or outlines and write in your voice. Fiction and nonfiction: novels, business books, memoirs, self-help, personal development.
Developmental Editing
Plot structure, character arcs, pacing, point of view, narrative logic, audience alignment. The big-picture pass everything else depends on.
Line Editing
Sentence and paragraph-level work. Your voice stays intact. The weak spots get fixed.
Copy Editing
Grammar, punctuation, timeline consistency, style guide adherence. Chicago Manual of Style, APA, MLA, or your publisher's house style.
Proofreading
The final pass before your manuscript goes to an agent, publisher, or self-publishing platform.
KDP & Kindle Formatting
Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing formatting for self-publishing authors, ebook and print-ready.
Beta Reading & Manuscript Critique
Detailed reader feedback with marketability evaluation. Full editorial letters for authors still working through early revision.
Genres I work in:
Christian and inspirational fiction. Romance (contemporary, historical, paranormal). Memoir and personal narrative. Business, self-help, and personal development. Health, wellness, and lifestyle. Literary and women's fiction. Creative nonfiction.
Faith-based manuscripts are a particular strength. I understand both the spiritual content and the publishing landscape for Christian literature, and those aren't the same thing.
What every project includes:
Track Changes and detailed margin comments throughout. A custom style sheet built for your book: character names, preferred spellings, stylistic choices, timeline notes. Developmental and line edits include a full editorial letter. I'm available for follow-up questions once you're working through revisions.
Before we start:
I offer a sample edit on your first 1,000 to 1,500 words at no charge. You'll see how I work before committing to anything.
Google Docs or Microsoft Word with Track Changes. Complete confidentiality. Delivery on the agreed timeline.
Send me a message with your genre, word count, and timeline.

Most drafts are 90% there. I close the gap.
The manuscript that opens cleanly on every device, the thesis formatted correctly before the deadline, the sentence that finally flows — none of that happens by accident. It happens because someone went through the work carefully and cared about the details the author was too close to see.
That's what I do.
I'm a writer and editor with a background in manuscript editing, academic proofreading, KDP publishing, and legal transcription. I work with authors, researchers, professionals, and small teams — anyone who has done the hard work of producing something and needs a skilled, reliable person to help them finish it right.
Copyediting & Proofreading
Grammar, punctuation, clarity, consistency, and flow — edited in Track Changes so every decision is visible and reversible. Longer projects include a style sheet on request. You get a marked-up file, a clean final, and notes on patterns worth knowing for next time.
Academic Proofreading & Style Editing
Essays, theses, dissertations, and journal submissions aligned to APA, MLA, Chicago, or AP style. Citations checked, formatting corrected, academic register preserved. Your argument stays yours. I just make sure the presentation doesn't undermine it.
KDP & Print Formatting
Full formatting for EPUB and print PDF: trim size, margins, bleed, gutter, front and back matter, linked TOC, headers, footers, and consistent typography throughout. Every file is tested in Kindle Previewer before delivery. What you upload is what readers see.
Writing — Bios, Blurbs, Queries & Light Ghostwriting
I read what you've already written before producing a single word, so everything sounds like you on your best day. Author bios, back-cover blurbs, query letters, blog posts, articles, and web copy. Light ghostwriting available for longer projects — scope clarified upfront.
Beta Reading
Honest, reader-focused feedback on pacing, structure, character consistency, and whether the manuscript holds attention all the way through. Organized written notes you can act on — not vague encouragement.
Transcription
Legal-grade transcription of interviews, depositions, and witness statements. NFPA-style narrative or verbatim with identified speakers. Accurate, confidential, and ready to use without additional cleanup.
Every project includes:
Track-changed file + clean final copy
Agreed scope and milestones before work begins
Sample edit available before you commit

Hi, I’m Emma. I’m a published writer and editor with a Master’s degree in Educational Psychology and a background in youth advocacy.
I specialize in research-informed, thoughtfully written content focused on:
• Child and adolescent development
• Psychology and mental health
• Disability advocacy and accessibility
• Education systems and IEP-related topics
• Health and wellness
My graduate training required intensive research, academic writing, and data analysis, and I bring that same rigor to every piece I write. I care deeply about getting the details right while making complex topics clear, engaging, and accessible.
I am a published contributor at Ability Central, where I write long-form articles centered on disability, inclusion, and community impact.
My work includes conducting interviews, shaping narrative structure, and producing SEO-informed content that balances storytelling with substance. I have also edited and published articles, strengthening clarity, tone, and accessibility while maintaining each writer’s voice.
Beyond writing, I have direct experience working with children, families, and educational programs
. That lived experience informs my perspective and allows me to write with nuance, empathy, and credibility.
Clients hire me when they need:
✔ Research-backed content that still feels human
✔ Strong editorial judgment and structural clarity
✔ Thoughtful disability and accessibility representation
✔ Educational and psychology-informed insight
✔ Interview-based storytelling
✔ A writer who understands both audience and impact
I bring both academic depth and real-world experience to the table and would love to work with you.
