About this Gig

You wrote the book. I will make it clean enough to publish.


I proofread and copyedit nonfiction manuscripts and novels line by line, by hand, no AI. Whether you're self-publishing, querying agents, or just want your draft to stop embarrassing you, I will get it there.


What I do:


Book proofreading typos, grammar, punctuation, the small stuff that makes a finished manuscript look unfinished.


Copy editing clarity, consistency, word choice, and flow, while keeping your voice intact.


Line editing sentence-level work. Rhythm, tone, awkward phrasing, repetition.


Manuscript editing for when the draft works but something still feels off. I'll read it, tell you honestly what it needs, and quote you before we start.


What you get:


Track Changes in [Word / Google Docs], so you see every edit and accept or reject it yourself.


A clean, consistent manuscript ready for submission or publishing.


Honest feedback. If your book needs a light proofread and not a full edit, I'll tell you I'm not here to oversell you.


Why me:


I'm a book editor, not a bot. Every change I make is a decision I can explain. If you're a student or academic, that matters and I take it seriously.
