If you’re looking for a professionally trained editor who’s also a writer with years of experience working with a variety of authors—from bestsellers to those just starting out—you’ve come to the right place. In addition to having a certificate in editing from the University of Chicago, I have done freelance editing work for traditional publishers including Macmillan/Tor, St. Martin’s, HMH, Amazon, and Quarto Publishing.

My editing philosophy is simple: be accurate, be efficient, be kind. I believe it’s essential for editors to provide honest, constructive feedback and critique while being respectful and nurturing. That’s the promise I make to all my clients and one I’ll make to you, too. Click or tap here to read some of what clients are saying about my work.

*Package pricing is based on full-length manuscripts between 65K and 80K words. Email me for package pricing on manuscripts over 80K or under 65K words. Flexible payment options are available. Click or tap here for more information on how to select the right type of editing for your manuscript.

PayPal, CashApp, Venmo, Zelle, and all major credit cards accepted. Flexible payment options are available.

*Price may vary depending on the complexity and level of editing required. To determine total cost for word-based a la carte pricing, multiply total manuscript word count by price-per-word. Ex: line edit of a 80k-word manuscript would be 80,000 x .017 = $1,360. Final price of all services will be determined after a sample review has been conducted and may vary based on the submitted manuscript. Flexible payment options are available.
