I get it – it's hard to perfect your own book!
Did you know that we freelance book editors also hire editors for our own texts? That is because an online editor will always see things that you are missing because you’re too close to your text. And when you’re that close to it, it can be hard to figure out whether your manuscript will have the effect on your reader you want it to have.
And that purpose is exactly where I shine. Not only will I take on the role of your reader to see where you might jump too far ahead or explain too much – but I also know how to fix these challenges!
So I would love to talk to you about what you want your manuscript to achieve, and then see how I can help it do just that.
