Project details
As a freelance poetry editor, I work with poets who want to self-publish their poetry book. I edit individual poems and poetry chapbooks. I love working on manuscripts related to cultural identity, mental health, grief, and self-love. I provide three rounds of editing. With my editing, I help writers show their vulnerabilities through stories. I look at the structure of the piece and make sure everything flows. I look for any holes in the story; if any poems are too similar or stick out from the others, I dig into the words and stanzas on the page, looking at word choice and poetic devices. I clean up sentences.
I look at where the line breaks and punctuation should be placed. If the poems don’t have a substantial impact, I’ll suggest rearranging lines and stanzas. I also ask specific questions for the whole to show emotion and tell the entire story. I ask you what details are you leaving out? I tell you what feels unnecessary. I tightened up the emotions and stories, keeping in mind your voice. By the end of the editing session, your poetry book will be more substantial with emotion and tight with grammar. I'll gift you a personalized editing checklist.

I provide three rounds of editing. With my editing I help writers show their vulnerabilities through stories. I look at the structure of the piece and make sure everything flows. I see if there are any holes in the story, if any pieces are too similar or stick out from the others, I dig into the words and stanzas on the page, looking at word choice and poetic devices.

Testimonials
“I like how Fida pushed me to be a better poet. She saw potential in certain poems that i didn't see. I was able to connect to my own poetry even more.” - H
“Fida took her review of my work very seriously and wholeheartedly, and it shows in the questions she asks with each edit. She allowed me to push my poems further than I would have on my own. That's exactly what I wanted when I reached out to her! The edits made my poems feel more polished, and sometimes also added new surprising depths to them.” - E
