Yes, I was one of those kids in school who loved grammar. To this day. I spend time diving deep into the logistics of structure and syntax. I continue to pour over my copy of the Chicago Manual of Style to ensure that the writing I submit is polished.
Whether you are a creative writer looking for a fresh set of eyes on your manuscript; a professional wanting extra help with a marketing campaign, or an important email or report; a student who wants to learn how to take that paper to the next level -- in short, whatever your writing needs may be, I can help.
Editors can be expensive. The guarantee I can give you is that I am affordable, and there will be no surprises built in the cost. I charge based on the project, not the time, so you will know the price and timeline before any work is started.

CREATIVE WRITERS
Do you have a manuscript you are thinking about querying? Are you self-publishing and looking for that extra set of eyes after self-editing five different drafts? I'm here to help. I offer developmental and structural edits. I will help find those inconsistencies, the parts that drag, the parts that rush, and those moments where the impact isn't quite what you want it to be. Structurally, I will seek out those pesky punctuation errors, those sentences that just don't flow quite right, those moments where dialogue tags are needed, and when they are not. I will give your manuscript the love and attention worthy of the time, sweat, and tears you put into composing it.
A BIT ABOUT ME AS A READER AND WRITER
You want to work with someone who understands your chosen genre, so allow me to introduce myself as a reader and writer. My writing tends to fall into the literary category, although I have been dipping a toe or two into the established fantasy tropes. While my reading and writing fall within the adult age bracket, my experience as an educator has made me well-versed in the reading abilities of young adults. Furthermore, I have a strong passion for history. Thus, I feel comfortable providing substantive edits for the following:

- Historical Fiction
- YA and Adult Fantasy
Of course, if you write outside these categories, I would still love to hear from you. I will not take on any project I don't feel I can do justice.

PROFESSIONAL AND ACADEMIC WRITERS
Sometimes, a brilliant idea can get lost if not properly communicated. Just as you wouldn't show up to a meeting sloppily dressed, don't settle for less than your best in your written communications. Marketing, strategic documents, or reports or emails: I can help you ensure your communications reflect your brilliance.
Not only will I edit the document for areas of stylistic and grammatical improvements, but will provide a summary, detailing how you can improve future written communications. I will then be available for any follow-up questions you may have with regards to your writing.
I am offering similar services for post-secondary students who want affordable assistance on essays or other papers. Don't lose marks on easily fixed mistakes. Again, I will provide a summary analysis of your writing to better help you with future projects.
