    Abigail was terrific! After 20+ traditionally published books, Abigail did an amazing job copy editing my first indie publishing effort, a middle-grade sci-fi novel. Tightened up word count. Elevated word choices. Improved pace. I'm so thankful I put her on my editing team. I will be back for Book 2...

    Abigail did an excellent job editing my short story! She polished the prose beautifully without ever taking over my voice and made the whole piece feel smoother and stronger. I’m really happy with her work and will definitely come back for more!
