Where Your Story Comes Alive!
Services
You've worked long days and sleepless nights to make your dream a reality, and now the thought of having a third party comb through it unnerves you. Will they change the story? Will they try to make your story their own? What about your voice, will it still be yours? These are all genuine concerns authors have when hiring an editor. After reading through my services, I hope you'll be one step closer to feeling comfortable deciding the best way to take your manuscript from draft to published masterpiece. I have designed my services to help you breathe a little easier. I will walk you through all the stages of the editing process - what to expect, what type of editing is best suited for your book, what to look for in an editor, and how to prepare yourself for the emotional and physical toll of professional editing.

Our writing services are designed to help you develop your ideas with clarity, coherence, and creativity. We provide story development, manuscript assessments, and book synopsis and blurb writing assistance.
Story Development
Helps authors develop the content of their stories by listening to plot ideas, and then guiding authors on how to script those ideas into words that flow from page to page.
Manuscript Assessments
Involves reading through an author's manuscript and suggesting changes and ways to improve the overall structure and flow of the content while clarifying its message.
Book Synopsis and Blurbs

Editing
Our editing services are designed to ensure that your content is clear, concise, and free of errors. Editing improves the flow and structure of your work, ensuring that your message resonates with your audience.
Developmental Editing
Developmental editing focuses on the overall content of an author's work and checks for the following: story organization, plot holes, character development, pacing, dialogue discrepancies, and more.
Line Editing
Line editing focuses on an author's content, writing style, and use of language. The following issues are checked during line editing, sentence structure, word usage, flow, logic, and clarity.
Copyediting
Copy editing is much like line editing. It too focuses on content, style, and an author's use of language. It also checks for grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors, in addition to checking for formatting issues. ​
Supported Self-Publishing
Supported self-publishing is a process that empowers authors to publish their work independently while receiving professional guidance and resources. It combines the freedom of self-publishing with valuable support services, while helping authors navigate the complexities of the publishing world. Through our supported publishing model, authors maintain creative control over their work while receiving assistance in editing, design, and publishing on platforms such as Amazon, IngramSpark, and Google. Our goal is to ensure that your book reaches the right audience here at home, and globally.​​

Through distribution, we facilitate the delivery of books to various retailers, libraries, and online platforms, ensuring wider accessibility and visibility for authors, so authors can focus more on their writing.
The average developmental editing job takes 4-5 weeks. It takes about 3-4 weeks for a line editing job and 1-2 weeks for copyediting. My goal as your editor is to help you produce your most polished work, one we can both be proud of. To do this, I need time, and for that reason, I do not offer rush services.
