My name is Alison Ortony, and I have developed exceptional writing and proofreading skills as a perpetual student. More recently, I worked as a graduate assistant during my final semesters. During this time, I edited and proofread dissertation chapters for more than 20 students. These chapters were all written in APA 6 or 7, and I was responsible for ensuring correct grammar, punctuation, accurate APA formatting, citations, and references. Since then, I have expanded the types of work that I edit to include fiction. When reading fiction, I maintain my intense focus on grammar, punctuation, and clarity while maintaining the characters' and author's voices. This requires a careful adaptation of editing to ensure meaning and tone are clearly expressed.

I’ve worked on a variety of editing projects across nonfiction, fiction, academic writing, and other online content. I’ve edited nonfiction ebooks, including wellness guides, how-to content, and cookbooks for specific dietary needs. My work focuses on improving structure, flow, and helping authors communicate their message clearly. In fiction, I’ve edited essays and ebooks across different genres, paying close attention to tone, pacing, and consistency while preserving the writer’s voice. For academic writing, I’ve polished university entrance letters, literary analyses, and research-based essays to meet high academic standards, ensuring the writing is clear, organized, and effective. I’m focused on helping writers shape their work into something they feel confident about. Whether you’re working on an article, a manuscript, or an academic piece, I’ll help refine it with care, precision, and respect for your voice.

Hello, I’m Dante! I'm an English major with an Associate of Arts degree in English. I aim to become an English teacher in all due time. For my work, I have written countless essays, read numerous non-fiction and fiction stories, and consulted with other distinguished peers on how to better their craft. I take pride in honing my skills as a writer and editor. Now I tend to gravitate to fictional stories but am also adept at taking on non-fiction as well. Moreover, I offer a wide range of edits, which include structural, developmental, copyedit, and proofreading. If we connect, we can discuss the process over Zoom and email. HERE'S A CLOSER LOOK AT WHAT I OFFER: Structural & Developmental Edits • How does the overall narrative flow together? • What are the character motivations? The development of each paragraph and narrative flow? Is it too short or inadequate? A meandering ramble leading to nowhere but in circles? *These structural questions help determine a narrative flow and sense of cohesion that help keep readers engaged. So, the pacing of the narrative, plot, and overall flow is the focus of my structural edits. The edits here are generally big-picture and full of critical analysis while offering revisions on the content you’ll provide. Line or Copyedit • Is the grammar messy? Any repetition? • Spelling mistakes? Accurate punctuation? • Do the nouns, verbs, and adjectives conflict in your sentence? *The copyedit focuses mostly on accuracy and the mechanics of writing. I’ll make a strenuous effort to ensure your writing is smooth and comprehensive for the reader. Proofreading • In a proofread, I evaluate for any mistakes, errors, or inconsistencies before you decide to publish. I do edits over Microsoft Word, so you’ll view the many revisions and comments I offer. Communication is crucial to me, so I look forward to collaborating with you!
