Your story is written. Your characters are falling in love. Now let's make sure little errors don't distract your readers.
I'm a writer, literary magazine editor and lifelong romance reader with 13+ years of experience writing romance focused fanfiction, including a completed 107k+ word romance story.

I'll check for:
- ️Grammar, spelling and punctuation
- Typos and missing words

Your manuscript will be returned with tracked changes, so you can review every correction.
This is strictly proofreading. I won't rewrite your work, change your voice or provide developmental editing.
I welcome most romance genres, including contemporary, historical, romantic comedy, fantasy, romantasy, sci fi, paranormal, sports and LGBTQ+ romance. Steamy and explicit romance is welcome. I don't accept dark romance.

No. This is strictly proofreading. I won't rewrite your prose or alter your individual writing style. Your voice stays yours.
