Editing your book with empathy and conviction

Fiction Writers

Your story deserves to be told!

But poor grammar and clunky sentence structure can impact your ability to keep your readers’ attention.

Are you feeling confident about your story but are unsure of your language and grammar choices?

Are you worried an editor will tear your book apart and leave you feeling discouraged about your writing abilities?

Hi! I’m Emmy, an experienced editor with your best interest in mind!

My goal as your editor is to encourage you in the places that you’re doing well, not just to edit out your flaws. Our writing doesn’t improve if we only focus on what we do poorly. Knowing our strengths helps us believe in our ability to be better writers and emboldens us to embrace and change our flaws. 

As a teacher at heart, I strive to help you understand your writing better so that each project you create will be better than the last!

Services

Brainstorming Hour:

Let’s discuss the areas you’re struggling with as you write your book. Are you wrestling with how to write a better hook? Or maybe you’re having trouble deciding on an organizational structure? You don’t have to figure this out by yourself.

Line/Copy Edit:

Have you edited so much that you can’t see straight? I will review your manuscript to fix awkward phrases and flow,  check continuity, and edit grammar. Comes with a personalized editor’s guide of what to look for when editing future projects.

Proofread:

When your piece has gone through numerous stages of editing and is designed, I will check your work to find any typos, missing punctuation, or grammar issues before you publish.

My Philosophy

I am dedicated to creating an excellent product, while also making sure you feel encouraged about your work and motivated to take the next steps.
