My approach to editing goes beyond just correcting errors; it involves understanding and preserving the essence of your voice while ensuring that every aspect of your work—content, structure, tone, and pacing—aligns harmoniously. My goal is to refine your work in a way that enhances its impact and flow, allowing your ideas to come through clearly and powerfully, without losing the personal touch that makes it yours.
I provide professional copyediting (content and style), as well as proofreading for Adult and YA Fiction, specializing in all sub-genres of Women’s Fiction including:
Relationship-Driven: Focus on family, friendship, and romance
Personal Growth/Self-Discovery: Inner journeys, empowerment, and transformation.
Historical/Cultural: Women’s experiences in historical or cultural contexts.
Domestic/Family Life: Home, motherhood, marriage, and family dynamics.
Issue-Driven/Empowerment: Social, political, and personal challenges.
Light/Humorous: Humour, romance, and lighthearted stories
Please, inquire if your genre or sub-genre isn’t listed.
