About The Ghostwriter: I am in my senior year at Miami University of Oxford, Ohio. English is my first language, and I specialize in creative writing. I have previously written works that I published. A few are available on my website, Making Domhan. I have likewise published non-fiction materials with the magazine Miami Quarterly. Proficient at grammar and storytelling, I am an editor at the publishing company, Next Chapter.

Furthermore, I'm a bisexual, transgender man and a child of a Venezuelan immigrant. My experience with minority spaces helps give me insights as an author. My writing often includes diversity, but the variety of characters can be increased or minimized depending on your preferences. The choice is yours.

Adding descriptive language to novel I was very blessed to find Icarus. My first novel was lacking in descriptive details, so I turned to many people for help. Out of all the people I hired, Icarus was easily the best. He went beyond what I asked and delivered some fantastic writing. My first novel wouldn't have been as good without his help. Thanks, Icarus! And I look forward to our next project together.

EDITORS NEEDED for Historical Romance Novels - Long -Term Work Icarus has helped us a great deal with our publications, and his skills are very strong in editing a piece of fiction. I'd prefer better communication when it came to installments he didn't particularly like editing himself as there weren't constructive solutions from his side on how to approach the issues he had identified, like the author not addressing the edits the way he wanted them to be addressed.

We had to end the contract because, on a short notice, he let us know that he won't be able to take on new projects. We did complete the outstanding ones, which is something for which we're grateful.

I do recommend his editing services, though, as he really is very skilled at what he does, I just think there should be a bit more discussion from his side when it comes to how he can resolve problems that he identifies in a manuscript, problems that might thwart his own editing of the piece in the long run. Some compromises are inevitable in our line of business.

Precise editor and beta reader with a creative backbone - I know how to capture a voice and transfer it onto a page. I have self-published many small works online, as well as the first three novels in a fantasy series that is available on Amazon (Fearghus Academy). I also have experience editing and writing for the magazine Miami Quarterly.

I have previously hired through Upwork, so I know what it's like to be on the receiving end of a job through this website. You will find that I am easy to communicate with and like to get the job done right. You won't be disappointed!
