About this Gig
You've put so much into your draft. You need an editor who will too.
You can expect a copy of your manuscript with in-line comments and edits tracked, including:
- In-depth line-by-line feedback on consistency, dialogue, pacing, plot holes, tension, and more.
- Sentence structure feedback.
- Suggestions for stylistic improvements.
- Feedback on voice consistency.
- A balance of constructive feedback and compliments.
- Minor proofreading for spelling and grammar.
- Complete confidentiality.
- Speedy and helpful service.
- A clean copy, upon request.
As a writer, I know the stress of sharing your work. I promise to take great care with your style and wishes and look to develop your writing rather than change it.
My specialties include thrillers, mysteries, horror, crime, contemporary, and memoirs. I may work other genres depending on your specific needs.
Let's work together to make your content the best it can be!
Order now to invest in yourself. You deserve it.

FAQ
What if my work is longer than 80,000 words?
I'm happy to set up a custom offer! Please message me directly with the details of your project.
Can I talk to you about my project before booking?
Absolutely! You're welcome to message me directly, or I offer paid consultations through phone/video if that works better for you.
What about proofreading?
This service does not include in-depth proofreading, I only point out what I notice as I go. If you'd like to add this service, please message me directly!
Do you offer discounts?
Yes. My job is to create more creativity and joy in the world, not less, and I won't be a barrier to you achieving your dreams. Discounts are available for writers experiencing financial need, students and other writers under 25, and marginalized or underrepresented groups in the writing community.
Do you use Ai?
No, I don't. I don't support generative Ai and I don't think it has a place in the arts. I'm not even a fan of Grammarly, it's too comma-happy. All of my services are Ai-free.

Allison was fantastic! She came highly recommended and delivered on all fronts. This was my first edit with a professional and she walked me through the entire process (even my novice questions). She communicated clearly on the dates and what to expect. I will definitely utilize Allison on my future books and works hands down.
