Editor, Writer, and Formatter
About this Gig
I offer professional line and copy editing for fiction manuscripts, with a focus on clarity, flow, consistency, and reader immersion. This service is ideal for authors who want clean, polished prose without changing their voice or story direction. Editing is performed line by line and includes grammar, punctuation, awkward phrasing, repetition, and sentence-level clarity.
In addition to editing, I provide Amazon-ready formatting for Kindle and paperback, ensuring your manuscript meets KDP standards for a smooth publishing process. I am a self-published author in Young Adult Fantasy and Science Fiction and understand both the creative and technical sides of preparing a book for release.
All work is completed manually, no AI-generated edits or automated tools. You will receive a clearly marked document with tracked changes and comments where needed. Please note that this service does not include developmental editing, plot restructuring, or heavy rewrites.
