Do you need a developmental editor to look at your romance novel’s structure, character development, and scene pacing? A line editor who can restructure sentences like a pro? How about an experienced copy editor?
In other words, do you need an editor who can help make your manuscript shine?
You’ve worked hard on your book. Invested your time. Made it the best it can be.
By this point, you’ve read your manuscript so many times it’s likely you’re missing errors. You need an editor to polish your book and make it look professional without changing your author’s voice.
That’s where I come in.
My name is Chris, and I’m a professional editor who offers an amazing customer service experience for my clients. I offer developmental editing, line editing, and copy editing. Not sure what type of editing you need? See my Services Provided page for an overview of the different types of editing and my fees. I’m a pro at tweaking already great writing into a story that flows easily and will have your readers losing themselves in your book.
I take great pride in providing a quality service for authors. I also believe that communication is key to a great working relationship.
I work regularly with several independent authors as their go-to editor. I edited twenty-five romance novels and novellas, four cozy mysteries, two suspense books, two non-fiction business books, a children’s book, and a screenplay in 2022. I’m an avid romance reader, which is my editing genre specialty.
I have a bachelor’s degree in biology and a master’s degree in health services administration. I’ve worked as an educator, so I’m experienced with providing patient, kind, and actionable advice.
I’m an experienced freelance writer, too. I wrote regularly for New York Times bestselling author Chris Guillebeau. I wrote the scripts Chris read on his podcast “Side Hustle School.” You can check out one of the scripts I wrote for Chris here. I’ve also done some freelance writing in the health and wellness niche.
I’ve also created content and completed reviews of medical educational content for MPS Limited.
I give 110% to all my projects. And I crush deadlines.
I offer all new clients a sample copy/line edit on the first 1000 words, so you can get a feel for my work and whether we’re a good fit.
I use MS Word Track Changes function and Comments to edit within the document. Ultimately you accept or reject my suggestions as you see fit; you are the author and the final say is, of course, yours.
I’d love to chat about your next project and how I can help you achieve success – contact me today.
