FAQ
What makes you a Fiverr Pro?
I have a BA and MFA in Creative Writing. I've been an editor for over 15 years; I've worked in print journalism, academic journals, and with traditional publishing houses and indie authors.
I'm not sure what type of editing I need. Can you help me decide?
I'm happy to discuss your project with you to ensure you get the right service--even if it means you're better off with an editor with a more suitable specialization.
Which genres do you work with?
For proofreading and line editing, I work on all genres, including nonfiction. Every genre has different reader expectations, so in order to provide the best service possible, I only do developmental editing on science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and romance and their related subgenres.
Do you do the work yourself?
Absolutely! I don't use AI or subcontract out the work. I will utilize a grammar checker to help with obvious errors, but otherwise it's all me.
