About this Gig
There's nothing more satisfying to me than taking a great story and polishing the prose until it shines. I can't wait to help make your manuscript into the best book it can possibly be. I specialize in editing indie fiction, especially LGBTQ+ romance and erotica, sci-fi/fantasy, Young Adult (YA), and literary fiction.
What you get:
- Line-by-line annotations on your manuscript
- Comprehensive proofreading to catch every mistake
- Suggestions for improving flow, clarity, word choice, and style
Not sure if I'm a good fit? Try the Sample tier and see what I can do on just the first 5000 words of your manuscript. Or if you're already happy with your prose and just need a fresh set of eyes for the final review, Proofreading is offered as a separate package at a much lower rate.
Do you have some sections that just aren't working? Consider adding on a Rewrite, and I'll contribute up to 10,000 words of my own writing to your project (more available upon request). Looking for something even more comprehensive? Upgrade to the Developmental Edit and I'll also add developmental editing annotations and an editorial letter.

FAQ
What's the difference between proofreading, line editing, and developmental editing?
Proofreading just catches simple mistakes, like typos or grammatical errors. Line editing improves your prose's flow, style, and clarity. Developmental editing gives high-level feedback on your characters, plot, worldbuilding, and pacing.
Do you use AI for your editing?
Absolutely not. I will never use AI for any of my edits, rewrites, or feedback in any service I provide on Fiverr, and I will never run any part of your work through AI.
Will you edit explicit or potentially triggering content?
Yes! I've worked as a mental health counselor for almost 10 years; you can trust me to handle any kind of content in a sensitive and professional manner.
Will you change my writing style or voice?
No, the goal is to improve your prose without erasing your unique voice. If you purchase the Rewrite add-on, I will do my best to emulate your voice so my rewrites don't stand out from the rest of the manuscript.
Do you only work with queer indie authors?
Not at all! That's the area where I have the most experience, but I'd never turn away someone who was interested in working with me.
I've read the Gig description and FAQ, but I'm still not sure what package to go with. How do I choose?
I'm happy to look at a sample of your work and let you know what I think it needs. If you want something more specific than what I'm offering, you can also reach out and ask. As long as it's something I can provide, I'll gladly put together a custom offer for you.
