Fiction Editing

In fiction, I specialize in Young Adult and New Adult fiction, though I do have experience editing middle grade and adult romance manuscripts as well. I am most experienced in contemporary, dystopian, fantasy (particularly urban fantasy), thrillers, paranormal and sci-fi. 

I am not your best resource for cozy mysteries, historical fiction or westerns and recommend that you seek editing from someone who is not only so experienced, but (in the case of historical) is also familiar with the period about which you are writing.

Nonfiction Editing
