Editing

Customized Editing

You’ve finished that book and you’re finally ready to show it to publishers…but is it really ready? It’s difficult judging your own work. You need an outsider’s objective viewpoint.

Every book is unique, and so is every author.  When I see your manuscript we can discuss the best plan of action for your individual needs.

Competitive Pricing

One of my goals is to make editing affordable for all writers. Clients frequently tell me that they were pleasantly surprised by my low rates.

My services are often a much better value than my competitors. Please request a price quote and decide for yourself.

Novels

I have served as the editor for all kinds of novels. I’ve edited action-adventure, historical, science fiction/fantasy, romance, mystery, Christian fiction, young adult, women’s fiction, military, urban and many others. I’m not a fan of serial killer books or the horror genre.

I work closely with novelists to properly address the often subtle nuances and challenges of plot, setting, characterization, narrative voice, flow and dialogue.

I’ve even written an eBook entitled “Building a Better Novel” to share my insights with aspiring writers.

Children’s Books

I have edited and ghostwritten numerous children’s books over the past 25 years, and I fully understand the unique challenges they present. These projects, from Pre-K to Young Adult, are always enjoyable for me to work on, and helping new writers in this field is especially rewarding. It evokes memories of how fun it was reading to my own kids when they were little. The editing process is much easier than you may have realized, and I look forward to working closely with you. Please read my biography for more information about my background.

Non-Fiction

My nonfiction projects have ranged from self-help, memoir, and health, to business, current events, and many other topics. Making complex issues understandable to the average reader is a challenge I’ve faced many times, and I would like to hear more about your book and how I can help you make it a success.
