About me
Hello, I'm Tobey. I specialize in developmental editing, line editing, and proofreading for fiction and non-fiction authors who need a clean, reader-ready manuscript. I don't just fix typos. I examine sentence rhythm, narrative clarity, character voice, and structural flow. Weak pacing or unclear ideas? I show you exactly where and how to fix them. I work with first-time authors, indie publishers, and business owners. No AI, every sentence is reviewed manually. Missed an error after delivery? I'll correct it within 24 hours at no charge. Previously edited 25+manuscripts offline.... Read more

    Tobey is an absolute pleasure to work with. Very proactive and intuitive I never have to over-explain things. She understands the vision behind the manuscript almost instantly and offers edits that actually make sense for the story and the voice. Highly recommend her to any author looking for a sharp, understanding editor.
