FAQ
Q: Will you change my unique voice or make my story sound like someone else wrote it?
A: Absolutely not. Your voice is the most important part of your memoir. My editing focuses solely on enhancing clarity, flow, and structure. I remove repetitive words and awkward phrasing, but your authentic personality, tone, and emotional perspective stay exactly the same.
Q: My memoir contains highly sensitive and personal information. Is my manuscript safe with you?
A: Yes, your privacy is 100% guaranteed. Writing a memoir is a vulnerable process, and I treat every manuscript with absolute confidentiality. Your personal life stories will never be shared, published, or discussed with anyone else. I am happy to sign an NDA if requested.
Q: What is the difference between your editing and a ghostwriting service?
A: As your editor, I refine what you have already written. I do not write chapters from scratch or invent scenes. I fix timeline transitions, tighten dialogue, and polish the grammar of your existing draft so your real-life experiences read like a professionally published book.
Q: Can I send you a large manuscript (e.g., 50,000+ words)? How do we calculate the price?
A: Yes! Please send me a direct message first. While my gig packages show smaller word counts for quick sample edits, I regularly edit full-length books. Just message me your total word count and a short summary, and I will send you a tailored custom offer.
.Q: What file format should I send, and what will I get back?
A: Please upload your manuscript as a Microsoft Word document (.docx). When I finish, you will receive two files: one showing every single adjustment via Track Changes (so you remain in complete control) and a second, clean version ready for reading.
