About this Gig
Your manuscript is finished, but after reading it so many times, it can be hard to tell what a first-time reader will notice.
Maybe a scene feels too slow, dialogue sounds awkward, repeated idea, or a character's voice changes. You may know something is not working, but cannot pinpoint what needs fixing.
That is where a fresh editorial & reader perspective can help.
I help fiction authors turn manuscripts into smoother, clearer, more engaging books while keeping their story & voice intact.
My fiction book editing includes:
- Developmental editing
- Line editing
- Copy editing
- Proofreading
- Pacing & story flow
- Character voice and consistency
- Dialogue & readability
- Grammar & sentence structure
I focus on places that interrupt the reading experience, refining the writing so your characters, scenes & story come through clearly. Your novel should still sound like you.
Whether you write romance, fantasy, mystery, thriller, contemporary fiction or literary fiction, I can help you identify what your manuscript needs before you publish.
Send me your word count & a sample before ordering. Let's find what you may be too close to see & strengthen your manuscript while keeping it yours.

If you're not sure whether you need developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, or proofreading, send me your word count and a sample. I can help you understand what your manuscript needs before you order.
Can you edit a completed novel before I publish it?
Yes. This is ideal if your manuscript is complete but you want a fresh editorial perspective before publishing. I can help identify issues you may have become too close to notice, from awkward wording and repetition to pacing, dialogue, consistency, and readability.
Can you improve pacing and dialogue?
Yes. I can review scenes and dialogue for flow, clarity, repetition, awkward wording, and consistency. The goal is to make the reading experience smoother without rewriting your story into someone else's style.
Do you provide proofreading after editing?
Yes. Proofreading can be included depending on the package you choose. It focuses on catching remaining spelling, grammar, punctuation, consistency, and other small errors after the main editing work.
What do you need before I place an order?
Please send your word count, genre, editing requirements, and a sample of your manuscript. If you're unsure about the level of editing you need, that's completely fine. I can review the sample and help you determine the right starting point.
