Project details

Many authors struggle to condense and/or structure their stories in a way that is appealing and easy for readers to understand. As an experienced ghostwriter of nearly a decade, I consider myself an expert in both story structure and content development. It would be my absolute pleasure to help your book shine as brightly as it possibly can.

With this package, I will provide one pass (read-through) of your entire story/novel and provide detailed commentary on what works and doesn't work from a storytelling perspective. I will provide suggestions to strengthen the overall narrative. I will point out potential problem areas, plot holes, and logical inconsistencies, and I will also make note of any content that I feel may come across as offensive or hurtful to some readers. Proofreading for spelling, grammar, and syntax can also be purchased for an additional fee.

This project is for stories or novels of 50,000 words or less. If you'd like to inquire about a longer project, feel free to ask. Proofreading is all done in American English. Preferred genres are: Horror, LGBTQ+, Middle Grade, Young Adult, Sci-Fi, and Urban Fantasy.

Hello lovely prospective clients. My name is Michelle Doering and I fancy myself a Jack of all trades. I have been earning extra income by proofreading, copyediting, and ghostwriting for a little over seven years. My writing/editing experience includes but is not limited to: blog articles, business contracts, resumes, product descriptions, screenplays, essays, poetry, and full length novels. I am particularly adept at mimicking an author's personal style, and therefore may be a huge asset for creative projects.

Additionally, I have been known to dabble with music, graphic design, and video editing, which you can see samples of on my profile. Whether it's background vocals, logos, or video thumbnails, I'm confident that I have the skills to make your project the best it can be.

I am very flexible and open to offers for just about anything. If you have any questions or would like a sample of my writing all you have to do is ask.
