Hi, I'm Maddy! I've been an avid bookworm for over 27 years, and have been professionally editing since 2016. I've worked on flash fiction, edited website content, picture books to novels, novellas, self-help, cookbooks, scientific journals, and even a few comic books and screenplays. You name it, I've worked on it! Whether you need someone to help iron out your first draft or find that last missing period before publication, I'm here to help!

This is my second time working with Maddy and I was just as impressed as the first time. She truly takes her time on your manuscript, and I didn't feel she rushed anything or cut any corners. She also gave a thoughtful analysis of the add-on I ordered. Thank you, Maddy!

I've been able to rely on Maddy's exceptional reports and in-line comments on each book in my series, and this time was no different. She gives very thoughtful feedback, including opinions on characters, storyline, dialogue, and the storyline as a whole. You won't regret working with Maddy.

Amazing work, truly. My manuscripts are a little messy, to be honest. I’m not great with proof reading and such. But she’s got my work in SUCH a good state. She was a few days early too! Will certainly be back.

Always great working with Maddy! She’s one of my go-to beta readers and I love how she breaks down the elements of the story to point out areas for improvement. I’ve used the service on at least ten manuscripts now.
