I offer proofreading, which is the last step towards a professionally edited manuscript. Proofreading is the final check, after all the substantive editing, copy editing, and line editing have been completed, before a manuscript is sent off to a publisher.

I am also a ghostwriter and writer, and have previously worked as a technical writer and a newspaper reporter.

What can I offer you? In the United States, anyone can call themselves an editor, even without a certificate, higher education, or training. I have a B.A. in English and a certificate of completion from Keys to Effective Editing. I have been editing, proofreading, and critiquing my peers’ work for over five years.

I’m dedicated to helping authors succeed and build their readership and community.

I believe in trust, dignity, and respect, and I’m committed to providing those values to all of my clients and their art.
