If you have a question or conern that isn't covered, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Do you offer copy edits?
At this time, I don’t offer copy editing except for certain smaller projects. It is a more specialized skill, and I would also suggest finding someone different to copy edit your book than your line editor. A pair of fresh eyes will serve your work the most.
When am I ready for an editor?
When you have already polished your work as much as you can, you are ready for an editor. You don’t want to send an editor a first, or even second, draft. It is also beneficial that you gather and use feedback from beta readers or critique partners first if possible. My time (and your money) is better spent polishing a completed book.
When should I schedule an editor?
You should schedule an editor once you feel close to getting the book as far as possible on your own. I book clients up to 6 months in advance.
Can you do a sensitivty read?
I do not have the experience to be a useful sensitivity reader. I will, however, note during edits if any characterization or language is used that is potentially problematic and requires further research on the author’s part. In this way, I can flag any texts that I think would benefit from a sensitivity reader.
