About this Gig
Professional Line Editing & Proofreading for Your Manuscript
With 13+ years of full-time experience as a novelist, editor, and medical technical writer, I bring a sharp eye and genuine publishing know-how to every project. I have independently written, edited, and published 20 titles across historical and contemporary romance, science fiction, fantasy, and nonfiction, so I understand exactly what it takes to get a manuscript reader-ready.
What I offer: Line-by-line correction of grammar, punctuation, and word choice. Fixing commonly confused words (rein/reign, trooper/trouper, etc.) Recasting awkward sentences for clarity and flow. Turning clunky narrative into natural dialogue where appropriate. Careful proofreading for spelling, punctuation, and consistency
I work on novels, non-fiction, medical content, blog posts, and e-books. I do not use AI writing tools in my process. Every edit is done by hand, ensuring your voice stays authentic and intact.
I am happy to provide a free sample edit before you commit, and I will sign an NDA if you need one for extra peace of mind.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.
