About this Gig
Hi! I'm Bridget, a certified stylistic/line editor (and fantasy writer) with 4 years of experience. If your draft feels almost there, but you want the prose to flow more smoothly, hit harder emotionally, and feel more immersive, I would love to help you polish it line by line while keeping your voice completely yours.
You'll receive:
- Line-by-line edits for clarity, flow, tone, and rhythm
- Stronger sentence structure and paragraph-level readability
- Cuts for repetition/wordiness and fixes for awkward phrasing
- Notes on dialogue, voice consistency, and immersion
- Tracked Changes and comments in your document
I specialize in fantasy, romantasy, paranormal, urban fantasy, YA, dystopian, and horror (and I'm happy to work with other genres too!).
* I'm comfortable working with adult content, including dark themes, violence, and explicit romance *
Not sure what you need? Send me your blurb, word count, and what you're hoping to achieve, and I'll happily point you to the best fit (line editing vs developmental vs full service).
Want to be extra sure we're a good match? Message me for a 1,000-word sample line edit.
** Now booking for July!! **
Thank you and happy writing!
Bridget

FAQ
What does line/stylistic editing include?
Line editing focuses on clarity, flow, tone, and readability at the sentence and paragraph level. I refine wording, pacing, rhythm, dialogue, and character voice while keeping your personal writing style intact.
Do you fix grammar and punctuation?
Line editing is about style and clarity, not grammar rules. I will correct some minor issues I notice, but full grammar correction is part of copy editing and proofreading (which I also offer separately)! If you have any questions, please feel free to message me!
What genres do you work with?
I specialize in fantasy, romantasy, urban fantasy, paranormal, YA, and horror, but I’m happy to work with other genres too. Feel free to message me if you have any questions!
How do I choose the right package?
Send me a message with your word count and a quick summary of your project. I’ll help you pick the best package, or I can create a custom package for you!
Can you line edit a full series or multiple books?
Absolutely! If your project is part of a series, let me know, and I can create a custom offer (and a discount for multiple books).
Do you track all changes?
Yes! You’ll receive a fully marked-up version with tracked changes and comments! :)
Do you offer follow-up questions after delivery?
Of course! If you have any questions at all about anything I've commented on or suggested, please feel free to ask me.
Are you comfortable with mature, dark, or violent content?
Yes, I’m comfortable with mature, dark, violent, and romantic themes.
How long is the editorial report?
It varies by project, but my reports are always detailed, clear, and tailored to your story’s needs!
