I have 30 years experience as an editor (fiction and nonfiction), writer (fiction and nonfiction), screenwriter, ghostwriter, copy editor, and writing coach (please see attached resume and publishing history, as well as my Elance job history). As a developmental editor, my focus is on assuring the work is as good as it can be by editing for story arc, character development, clarity, flow, consistency of voice and style, pacing, plausibility, etc. As a copy editor, I also assure that grammar, syntax, noun/verb agreement, punctuation, etc. are correct.
I'm easy to work with; communicate with the client as much as he or she desires; am efficient, reliable, and accountable; and always make deadlines.
I'll do an initial edit of your book and submit it to you for your review and feedback. Once I have your input, I'll create the final, polished book.
I'm happy to edit a few pages of your book for free to serve as a sample of my work.
Please contact me if you'd like more information, have questions, or would like to see samples of my editing.
