About this Gig
Please Note: I do not edit short stories, books, or poetry.
If you have an important message that needs to be rewritten in language that is clear, engages in a way that stands out, and leaves a strong impression... this gig is for you.
My credentials: 16 years of professional writing and editing experience; high-level business communication editing insight; and enthusiastic reviews from satisfied customers.
Each package includes a heavy focus on line rewriting to address: grammar, syntax, word choice, flow, structure, vagueness, inconsistencies, and redundancy. While my expertise isn't broad enough to fill gaps in every subject, my critical analysis skills allow for valuable feedback that makes it easy for you as the content expert to do so.
If your document is too wordy, consider my gig extras. I can trim distracting or unessential content. Is your document written in English as a second language (ESL)? I offer gig extras for contextual translations.
Let me help you make each word count!

FAQ
Do you write content for clients?
While I have written content as a ghostwriter in the past, I have found that my value to others is to act as an editor. I excel at rewriting rough drafts by expanding on information (when possible) and pride myself on clarifying, strengthening, or highlighting gaps in weak descriptions.
Does this service include formatting?
No. This is a content editing service only.
How much rewriting is done once my order is placed?
As a detail-oriented perfectionist, I generally do a significant amount of heavy editing relative to the quality of your draft. So while I focus on corrections, my goal is to enhance the value of every word.
Do you have work samples available?
Unfortunately, I do not have the freedom to share samples of work I've done for other authors. I do not own the copyrights and in some cases have even signed non-disclosure agreements. However, I do have a collection of 5-star reviews from customers that benefitted from the work I've delivered.
Do I, as the customer, retain full rights to the content?
Of course. After edits are completed, you are free to alter it, attribute it to yourself and/or co-authors, and publish it as your own.
Do you optimize for SEO and keywords?
No. My focus is on developing content that is engaging to the reader and highly relevant to the topic. Generally, highly focused subjects that are well-written in plain language will perform well in search engines.
Why do you only work on content written in narrative (paragraph) form?
It is the best way to grasp the full context of the author's intent and obtain an appreciation for how best to interpret the level of editing needed.
Why are your editing projects focused on small efforts?
Due to the deep extent of my editing efforts, I intentionally keep my projects small enough to exceed my customer's expectations and meet delivery timelines. If you have a larger project and would like to discuss further, DM me and we can consider additional options.
Do you offer discounts?
No. Reductions in pricing interfere with my efforts to focus on committing the time necessary to provide you with the quality you deserve. My prices reflect the time and value it takes to deliver you the best product possible.
