Amber went above and beyond and is a pro. Moreover, she did as I requested, which was to edit without AI, which, in an increasingly AI-dependent world, is a breath of fresh air. Will gladly use her services again.

Another excellent project. I appreciate Amber's attention to detail, her notes that tell me she cares (and is reacting to the story). It's really fun to work on projects with her, I look forward to our next one.
About this Gig
Vetted Pro
You finished writing the novel of your dreams, and now it's time to buckle down and get it ready for readers!
My copyediting includes:
- Grammar
- Punctuation
- Word Choice
- Syntax
I read over 120 manuscripts when I interned as a YA/MG reader for a literary agency, and I earned my B.A. in Creative Writing in 2014. I've published ethnographic journalism, poetry, short stories, and non-fiction, some traditionally published and others through self-publishing.
Copyediting is critical to help your story read like a professionally written novel. You've done the hardest part in writing the book; allow me to handle the last step for you before you start publishing or querying.
My rate is $50 per 5,000 words ($.01 per word).
Let's write!

FAQ
Is English your native language?
Yes! I was born and raised in Texas, USA and currently live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
What experiences do you have with book editing?
I learned the art of editing while working toward my B.A. in Creative Writing. I also wrote and self-edited large portions of my traditionally published pieces and titles in addition to copyediting my clients' work here on Fiverr.
Does this include developmental or story editing?
No; I will only edit the manuscript for grammar, syntax, sentence structure, and punctuation. If you are not yet ready to query or publish, or believe you still have story editing to do, I suggest booking my development editing service first.
Which sub-genres of Young Adult will you edit?
I will only read the following sub-genres of YA: contemporary/coming-of-age, fantasy, mystery, paranormal, historical, LGBTQ+, scifi (message me first as I'm very picky), and select retellings.
Which sub-genres will you NOT edit?
Anything that could be considered horror (psychological or gory, doesn't matter) is something that I will not read.
Do you have any trigger warnings?
I will not read any manuscript that features child abuse, animal abuse, or r*pe on the page. If your manuscript includes any of these actions, I am NOT the editor for your story.

Ongoing collaborationAs always, Amber is the most solid editor I have ever worked with. At this point I don't let anyone else modify my work in the same way. Her grasp of my voice and my style is something that can only be reached with someone so gifted. Thank you for making my third novel three times better than the first one.
