About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Writing a great children's book is harder than it looks, but you don't have to figure it out alone.
With 24 years in publishing, including work with major publishers and award-winning titles, I provide professional, Fiverr Pro-vetted editing that strengthens your story at every level. I work with both fully written and AI-assisted manuscripts, shaping them into engaging, publication-ready books. Every edit is tailored to your story, your voice, and your target age group.
My process:
- Edit 1 - Structural edit: Plot, pacing, structure, and tone, with tracked changes and clear notes
- Edit 2 - Line edit: Flow, rhythm, word choice, and readability refined
- Edit 3 - Proofread: Final polish for grammar, punctuation, and consistency
Final product:
- Manuscript with tracked changes
- Clear editorial notes and feedback (if necessary)
- Improved structure, flow, and readability
- A polished, publication-ready manuscript
What I'll need from you:
- Your manuscript (Word document preferred)
- Target age range
- Any specific concerns or areas you'd like me to focus on
Let's shape your story into one that children will want to hear again and again.

FAQ
Do you only edit children's books?
No, I edit a variety of fiction and non-fiction manuscripts.
What type of children's books do you edit?
All and any - from picture and chapter books, right up to young adult fiction. I edit both poetry and prose books.
Will you be using AI to edit my manuscript?
No — every edit is carried out entirely by me, a professional children's book editor with 24 years of publishing experience. All feedback, suggestions, and rewrites are my own work.
What if I don't agree with your suggested changes?
All edits are delivered as tracked changes, which means you can accept or reject each suggestion individually.
How long will the editing process take?
elivery time depends on the package selected and my current workload. I always aim to deliver within the timeframe shown on the gig. If you need a faster turnaround, please message me before ordering.
Do you edit rhyming picture books?
Yes — rhyme, rhythm, and metre are areas I particularly enjoy working on. I'll flag any lines where the rhythm breaks or the rhyme feels forced, and suggest alternatives where needed.
Can you help if English isn't my first language?
Absolutely. I work with authors from all over the world and am happy to help strengthen the language, clarity, and flow of your manuscript regardless of your background.
