WHY EDITING MATTERS
Why do you need an editor? Why choose me?
In today’s self-published e-book world, errors and typos generate negative book reviews that can stall your book sales almost before they begin. Your manuscript is your baby; it represents a truly personal investment of your time and talent. Before you publish your book, protect that investment by working with an editor. As tempting as it may be to ask a family member or friend to review your manuscript, don’t let that be the extent of the editorial feedback you receive; you will not get the objective, thorough feedback you need that way. By working with a professional editor, you can self-publish with confidence, knowing that your manuscript is the best it can be.
Nothing makes me happier than being a supportive source of encouragement and expertise for writers as we work to bring out the best in a project. I will review your manuscript with objective eyes, spotting errors and inconsistencies while protecting and nurturing your unique writer’s voice. Whether you want beta reader feedback, proofreading, or more comprehensive editing, I will help you produce a quality final manuscript. I won’t always tell you what you want to hear, but you can count on my feedback always being respectful, thorough and detailed. If something makes me look twice, I’ll mention it to you. I’ll let you know if I’m making a suggestion as simply food for thought or if I think it is vital to your book’s success.
Before we work together, it is important that you know one more thing about me: I love your book simply because you wrote it. Together, we’ll polish your manuscript until it shines. You will be able to send it out into the world knowing that it is truly ready to find its audience.
