About this Gig
Hi there! Im Emily. I provide copy and line editing for full-length fiction manuscripts, working with indie authors who want their writing to read clearly, smoothly, and professionally without losing their voice.
If youre writing a character-driven or atmospheric story, I focus on strengthening whats already there rather than rewriting it into something its not.
My editing stays at the sentence level. Youll see improvements in:
- Clarity and readability
- Sentence flow and rhythm
- Grammar and punctuation
- Word choice and phrasing
- Consistency
- Reductions in repetition and overwriting
I follow CMOS and provide a tracked-changes file and a clean copy.
I typically work with novels (60k-100k words).
I'm happy to provide a short sample edit so you can see if the approach feels right.
Send your word count, genre, and a bit about your project, and we'll figure out the best next step together.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
What if my word count is not listed?
Contact me for a custom order!
What is the difference between line editing and copy editing?
Line editing focuses on sentence structure, flow, and clarity, enhancing readability and style. Copy editing corrects grammar, punctuation, and ensures consistency in language and formatting.
How long does the editing process take?
The time required depends on the length and complexity of your manuscript. Typically, I can complete editing within 1-2 weeks, but I offer expedited services if needed.
Do you provide feedback or suggestions for improving my story?
Yes, I provide detailed feedback and suggestions to enhance the plot, character development, and overall narrative, ensuring your story is compelling and cohesive.
Can you edit different genres of fiction?
Yes, I offer a sample edit of the first 1,000 words of your manuscript. This allows you to see my editing style and ensures we're a good fit for your project.
Will you provide a sample edit before starting the full manuscript?
Yes, I offer a sample edit of the first 1,000 words of your manuscript. This allows you to see my editing style and ensures we're a good fit for your project.
What is your turnaround time for revisions?
Editing is an extensive process so you should expect to receive your revisions returned to you in approximately 50% of the original delivery timeline. Larger projects or revisions may take more time, but will be communicated clearly!
