Copy editing
The next step in publishing
Finishing that first draft is often said to be the hardest part of writing a book. While not untrue, everyone seems to overlook the editing phase! This can be equally challenging but everyone deserves a little help along the way.
​
As a published author, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to bring your book into a polished state. Fear not, I'm here to help! I've been professionally editing novels and short stories since 2022 across a wide array of genres, including fantasy, sci-fi, alternative history, and contemporary. I specialize in YA, but have branched out to middle-grade, NA, and adult novels.
