About this Gig
Send me a message before booking!
Poetry is uniquely difficult for the writer to master, so you should be proud you've chosen to attempt it. Even a basic poem requires creative work on the level of concept and the level of form. Whether this is your first collection or your tenth, I'm here to provide a second set of eyes and to help you master these techniques.
I have published many poems in literary magazines and have worked as an editor of poems also, so I have plenty of experiences spotting what's working and what's not working. Using age-old techniques of the form, we will make your manuscript stronger on both the line-level and the big-picture level. I offer three levels of service: a basic edit, a publication-ready revision service, and a deep developmental edit and collaboration. I'm also happy to help with poem ordering and the overall feel of a collection, issues that are uniquely difficult in poetry as well.
Reach out! I've working with all skill levels of writers, and I'm happy to recommend which level of service I feel will be best for your manuscript.

Lillian was absolutely amazing. This was my first time working with an editor and despite my initial worries, Lillian made me feel super comfortable and confident. My voice remained the same throughout the book, but the edits done enhances the reader's experience. I will definitely be using for more books in the future.

Lillian went above and beyond with her edits! She was so thoughtful with her review of the entire manuscript, as well as each poem. I really feel that she understood how to keep my voice through the changes. Would highly recommend and look forward to working with her in the future.
