Writing a book is the first big step in making your dreams of becoming a published author come true. Whether you are looking to self-publish, or secure yourself an agent, I will be here to ensure your book is the best it can be. My deep line edits include in-text edits using track changes, focusing on the following: Repetition Redundancies Dialogue Word choice Sentence structure Clarity Tone and consistency And SO much more. At the end of my edit, you will receive two copies of your manuscript - one with tracked changes, and one clean copy. I also conduct developmental edits and proofreads. As of June 2022, I will be offering video calls to provide you with feedback on your work. Send me the first two pages of your manuscript if you would like a free sample to see my editing style. If you're working on a budget, please message me and I would be happy to discuss.

I am a focused freelance writer with a passion for storytelling. I have experience as an editor, proofreader, and writer with over four years of working with a diverse array of clients on Upwork and completing over 20 projects. Working through Upwork has given me many great chances to learn new things and take on exciting projects. This has helped me grow a lot as a professional and as a person. My experience includes editing academic papers, drafting commercial scripts, proofreading novels, and writing blog posts on various topics. Recently, I utilized my research and writing skills to complete my undergraduate paper comparing the works of two 20th-century composers, Florence Price and Bela Bartok. If you are looking for a passionate, open-minded employee with proven writing and editing skills, I would welcome the opportunity to work together. I am always eager for new challenges. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I hope we can work together soon.

So—you’ve written something amazing. Now it needs a sharp-eyed editor who gets your voice, understands your audience, and knows how to turn a good read into a great one. That’s where I come in. I’m a former English and history professor turned full-time editor with 15+ years of experience helping writers polish everything from swoony romance novels to suspenseful thrillers, cozy mysteries, spicy mafia love stories, and business blogs. I specialize in romance fiction and love working in sub-genres like contemporary, dark, paranormal, historical, and romantic suspense. I’m also no stranger to tropes—whether it’s enemies to lovers, fake marriage, or forbidden longing, I’ve probably read (and edited) it. I offer developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, and proofreading, and I can focus on just one step—or combine multiple stages—for a more comprehensive edit. Whether you need help with story structure, emotional pacing, grammar, flow, or final polish, I tailor my work to meet your manuscript’s unique needs. Beyond fiction, I also work with nonfiction authors, content creators, and small business owners. I’ve edited website copy, blog posts, manuals, lead magnets, academic writing, and more. Whether you're publishing a book, refining your brand voice, or just want your content to sound clean and confident—I’ve got you. ✨ 100% human editing—no AI, no fluff ✨ Developmental editing for plot, character, structure ✨ Line and copy editing for tone, clarity, and consistency ✨ Proofreading for grammar, punctuation, and formatting ✨ Familiar with APA, MLA, Chicago, and SEO best practices ✨ Comfortable in Word, Google Docs, PDF, and more I’m fast, reliable, collaborative, and ridiculously detail-oriented—and I take pride in helping your words truly shine. Let’s get your story (or message) ready for the world.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Creative Writing (with a Minor in Communications) from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. I took rigorous courses in both academic writing, research, and creative writing. I specialized in poetry. I served on the school's literary journal, the Sheepshead Review, for two years, or four semesters. For three of those semesters I was on the editing team. I was the nonfiction editor one semester, and then co-chief and chief copyeditor for two semesters, respectively. I'm very good at looking through things and finding flaws, as well as rewording sentences so they make more sense. I'm also very good at casual writing and writing poetry, short stories, and articles for newspapers, which would translate over to blogs. If I have to do a little research, that's no problem. I once had to write a ten page research paper, so this is no big deal! I have been on Upwork for over 6 years now and I have edited over 160 manuscripts. I am the listed editor on the book AEGIS by Aether Quinn and registered in Bowker's databases (where the ISBNs for the book came from). In my downtime I'm a huge nerd who reads, plays video games, and is into other geeky culture. I'm also a wife and have an adorable calico cat named Leliana. I very much look forward to working with anyone who is interested. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am an efficient and reliable editor and proofreader with a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology, History and Psychology and a Graduate Certificate in Editing and Publishing. I demonstrate an excellent eye for detail and deliver quality work at a reasonable rate. Equally adept in Australian, British and American English, I have had extensive experience editing and proofreading novels, e-books, children's books, website content and a wide variety of documents. My objective is to edit and proofread projects that will enable others to clearly communicate varied subject matter to the public. I offer accurate and enthusiastic proofreading and editing on any fiction or non-fiction project that requires word perfection.

I’m a native Spanish editor from Argentina with 10+ years of experience improving translated and originally written texts for publishers, authors, and international teams. I help turn rough, inconsistent, or AI-sounding drafts into clear, natural, polished Spanish. My work includes fiction and nonfiction books, translated manuscripts, children’s books, articles, websites, metadata, and reader-facing copy. I’m used to working with texts that need more than surface correction and require careful human editing to sound fluid, accurate, and consistent in Spanish. I can help with: • proofreading and copyediting • stylistic editing and flow improvement • translation review and naturalization into native Spanish • editorial QA for consistency, tone, terminology, and readability • cleanup of AI-assisted or machine-translated drafts I regularly work with literary and editorial material, especially romance, fantasy, horror, children’s literature, and nonfiction. I’m comfortable improving texts at both the sentence level and the overall reading experience, always with close attention to voice, clarity, and coherence. Alongside my editorial background, I also have experience coordinating workflows and reviewing multilingual content across teams. That means I pay attention not only to language quality, but also to consistency across the project, deadlines, and the broader editorial logic behind the work. If you need a Spanish editor who can combine close reading, strong language judgment, and reliable delivery, I’d be glad to help.

I help authors, researchers, and policy organizations turn dense or unfinished material into clear, credible, publication-ready work. Background: Trained in computational as well as traditional social science with an MPhil in Political Science, Economics & History (Government College University), a Research Methodologies certification (University of London), and training through the UN Institute for Training & Research. 5+ years across academia, journalism, and the development sector - including policy research roles on UN reform, resource distribution, and federal design, plus published research and reporting for organizations like The Borgen Project. I have also taught political science at the university and college level, which means I am as comfortable explaining a complex argument clearly as I am researching it. What that means for you: I am not generating generic copy. I am reading your material the way a subject-matter researcher would, then editing and writing with the judgment that comes from actually understanding the field, that is, political science, economics, international relations, policy, and academic/nonfiction publishing. Where I add the most value: - Developmental manuscript editing - working as a thought partner through structural and content problems in a book or long-form project, not just line edits. One book I developmentally edited went on to win an independent publishing award. Other past projects include a full-length book on adolescent mental health with a practicing psychiatrist, and a book-length philosophical corpus with a PhD philosopher. - Policy research & analysis - concept notes, grant proposals, policy briefs, OPEDs, literature reviews - Academic & nonfiction editing - proofreading, plagiarism/integrity checks, citation accuracy, theses/dissertations, book chapters, articles, and papers (APA, Chicago, etc.) - Ghostwriting for subject-matter-heavy projects where your voice and the accuracy of the content both matter I take a small number of projects at a time because the work I do requires actually reading and thinking, not just producing volume. If you need a collaborator who understands the substance of your project than a mere word count filler, you are at the right place. Let's talk!
