About this Gig
You spent months shaping your story then the second guessing sets in. Sentences that stumble. Pacing that sags in the middle. Typos hiding between the lines, waiting to undercut you the moment an agent or reader opens the page. This is the quiet wall standing between most writers and publishing day: a strong story buried under rough execution.
I help authors break through that wall.
Through line, developmental, copy editing, and proofreading, I reshape manuscripts sentence by sentence sharpening voice, tightening structure, and catching every slip before it reaches your readers.
Here's what your novel gets:
- Line editing refining rhythm, word choice, and voice at the sentence level
- Developmental editing strengthening plot, pacing, and character arcs
- Copy editing (copy edit) correcting grammar, punctuation, and consistency
- Proofreading the final sweep before publishing
- Manuscript editing shaped around your book's genre and voice
A great story shouldn't be weighed down by a rough draft. Yours deserves editing that lets it fly.

FAQ
I've rewritten the same chapter five times and it still doesn't feel right. What's actually going on?
Usually it's not the words it's the underlying structure. You can polish a sentence endlessly and the scene still won't land if the pacing or character motivation underneath it is off. This is where developmental editing steps in before line editing does, so you're not sanding down a shape that
My beta readers loved the story but said it was "hard to get into." What does that even mean?
That's almost always an opening-pages issue dense exposition, delayed hooks, or prose that hasn't found its rhythm yet. Line editing targets exactly this: tightening those first chapters so readers stay instead of drifting.
I'm self-publishing. Do I really need copy editing if I already used Grammarly?
Software catches surface mistakes but misses context inconsistent character names, timeline slips, tense shifts across chapters, dialogue tags that don't match your genre's conventions. A copy edit catches what automated tools are built to miss
I've queried 40 agents with no bites. Could editing actually change that?
Possibly, yes. Agents often reject on the first page not because the story is weak, but because line level execution signals whether a manuscript is ready. A polished manuscript editing pass can be the difference between a form rejection and a request for more pages.
I switched POV halfway through my novel without realizing it. Is that something you catch?
Yes inconsistencies like POV drift, tense slips, or timeline contradictions are exactly what a trained eye catches during copy editing and line editing, often things authors are too close to their own manuscript to see.
How much of my writing survives the editing process?
All of it, structurally. Editing isn't rewriting it's clarifying what's already there. Your voice, your instincts, your story stay intact. What changes is the noise around them.
