Copy Editing

Add the final polish to your manuscript before publishing your fabulous creation. I am a professional copy editor focused on the art and style of fiction writing of all shades and flavors.

With 14+ years of experience in the romantic fiction writing business, including editing for an M/M Romance USA Today bestselling author, and with 70+ successful titles of my own, I am well-positioned to assist you in achieving your goal of publishing a quality novel, novella, or short story.

A recent 5-star review of one of my books stated that my writing was impeccable. I can offer you that level of editing with a quick turnaround.

What is Copy Editing?

Copy editing is when I check your written material for grammar, spelling, style, and punctuation issues before it’s prepared for proofreading.

I may also do a rewrite or revision of sentences, if necessary, to fix any problems with transitions, wordiness, and jargon, and ensure the style of the piece fits with the publication. This is a more intensive pass of your manuscript and should ideally be undertaken before proofreading.
