About this Gig
A good translation should read like a book originally written in English, not like a translation.
If your manuscript has been translated into English and the meaning is correct, but the writing feels unnatural, repetitive, stiff, or difficult to follow, I can help.
I'm a professional book editor specializing in copy editing, line editing and proofreading for fiction, nonfiction, novels, short stories and translated manuscripts.
As your book editor, I'll carefully review your manuscript for:
- Grammar, spelling, punctuation, and syntax
- Awkward or unnatural translated phrasing
- Sentence structure, clarity, and readability
- Word choice, repetition, and unnecessary wording
- Tone, voice, style, and consistency
- Dialogue and narrative flow
- Tense, capitalization, and formatting inconsistencies
- Typos and overlooked errors through proofreading
- Polishing your manuscript so it reads naturally in English
You'll receive your edited manuscript with Track Changes so you can review the changes made throughout your book.
Not sure whether you need line editing, copy editing, or proofreading? Send me a sample, and I'll help you choose the right service for your manuscript.

FAQ
Do you edit manuscripts written by non-native English authors?
Yes. I can help make your manuscript sound natural and polished for English-speaking readers while preserving your original meaning and voice.
Can you edit a machine-translated manuscript?
Yes. I can refine awkward, literal, or unnatural language commonly found in machine-translated manuscripts.
Can you work with manuscripts translated from any language?
Yes, provided the manuscript is supplied in English. My focus is improving the English version rather than translating directly from the original language.
Can you preserve American English throughout my manuscript?
Yes. I can follow American English conventions for spelling, punctuation, grammar, and word usage.
Can you follow British English instead?
Yes. If you require British English, please mention it before the order begins so I can maintain the appropriate language conventions consistently.
Can you handle large manuscripts?
Yes. Large manuscripts are welcome. Please contact me with your word count so I can provide the appropriate package and delivery timeframe.
