I will edit and proofread your book while safeguarding your voice
About this Gig
Line editing is where your prose stops surviving and starts singing. Meanwhile, proofreading will save you from public embarrassment by catching lingering slips in spelling, grammar and punctuation.
With my craft knowledge from an MA in Creative Writing, a keen eye for detail, and a deep passion for narrative art, I will edit your book to the best version that you can confidently show the world while keeping your unique voice intact.
This Gig provides an annotated copy of your manuscript and a clean version that has been:
- checked for spelling, grammar, punctuation
- corrected tense inaccuracies
- examined clarity and readability
- formatted according to the publishing standard in your chosen market (Standard and Premium package only)
- evaluated tone, vocabulary choice, style and rhythm with a summary report (Premium package only)

FAQ
What genres do you edit?
I work with short stories to full-length novels across the following genres: Asian literary, historical fiction, magical realism, coming-of-age, cosy fiction, memoir/biography. But even if the genre of your manuscript isn't on the list, contact me anyway and we can figure it out together!
What file formats do you accept?
MS Word, Google Docs, and Apple Pages are highly recommended. Any other formats might make it difficult to track changes and leave comments.
Do you provide custom orders?
Yes! Drop me a message about your work (including word count), and I will make a custom offer to meet your needs.
Can I request a sample edit?
Sure! I offer a free sample for a 500-word excerpt. Message me to get your sample edited.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?
100%. Your intellectual property is strictly respected and will not be shared with anyone, not even AI. I can sign a nondisclosure agreement if required.
