Editing Services
Are you looking for an editor for your recently written novel/novella? I'm so excited to offer edits to anyone interested in bringing their book baby to the next level.
I have worked with Twenty Hills Publishing multiple times in assisting with line/copy edits, proofreading, and even some developmental edits. I am self-taught and am still learning, but I have a good grasp of grammar and vocabulary. And I genuinely love editing! I'm looking forward to growing in this new adventure.
A few things you need to know about me:
Rates and Services:
Right now my schedule is wide open, but this is a side venture for me, so my slots will be limited. If you are interested in talking, sending me a message below and tell me a little about your book. Include the title, genre, audience, and a brief description, along with the service you are looking for. I'll get back with you as soon as possible and let you know if I have a slot open. I look forward to working with you!

A few things you need to know about me:
- I edit fiction manuscripts only; NO nonfiction.
- I prefer the following genres: fantasy, historical fiction; Christian fiction; romance.
- I will not work on anything with profanity, sex scenes, or gratuitous violence. (I do not mind action scenes that include some violence, but it needs to be mild. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email and we'll discuss it.)
- I edit using track-changes in Word.
- All of my suggestions will be based on my opinion alone. In the end, it's YOUR novel and you are free to accept or reject any suggestions. I will do my best to make suggestions that go along with industry standards, but also encourage your voice to shine.
- I will be referring to the Chicago Manual of Style during my edits, as well as The Emotion Thesaurus and other variations written by Becca Puglisi and Angela Ackerman.
