About this Gig

*Update 7/15/2025: New prices! Please contact me if you have any questions. *


Do you need a poetry editor? Well then, I'm exactly who you need! 


After taking workshop classes for my MFA, I gained a love for editing and helping others develop their craft. Now, I want to help as many as possible. (There will be a separate gigs for children's work, short stories, and fiction.) 


This gig covers it all, from the basic grammar and spell check to the rewording and erasing of stanzas and paragraphs. I'll also check over rhyme schemes if needed. (Revisions are negotiable.)


Everyone needs a little help, so don't be scared to come and ask me!


Note: Please contact me before placing any orders. I will not accept orders if we have not discussed the project in detail first.

    Terra was helpful and left plenty of notes on my poetry project. She was great with communication and very polite. It's nice to work with someone who is considerate of their clients and cares about the work. I would recommend Terra to anyone looking for edits and suggestions for their writing.
