About this Gig
Vetted Pro
Please send me a message before placing an order so we can discuss your needs!
I know the pain of writing endless drafts only to have someone point out a grammar error, repetitive information, or spelling mistake.
A nonfiction book needs to provide value. If your book isn't a biography or memoir, your book should give the reader Actionable Guidance. The reader needs to know why something is important and how they can implement that information. Actionable Guidance is a big focus when I edit nonfiction.
I want to help your book be the best it can and help you become a better writer.
I offer:
Basic: Proofread and Copy Edit
I will correct: Grammar, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, readability, flow
Standard: Developmental
- Comments in your manuscript that focus on character development, pacing, and plot development with suggestions for improvements and positive input!
- Review and Critique file: what is working, what isn't, and how to improve
Premium: Extensive Edit
Everything in Basic and standard!
You will receive a Tracked Changes Copy and a Clean Copy.
I do all the editing manually!
See FAQ for more info!
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
My gig does not offer the following:
Creative Rewrites. Referencing. Formatting. Ghostwriting. Revisions.
What is your editing style?
I want to leave your voice and style intact. So I only change things if they are incorrect, vague, or awkward. I use a light hand as far as line editing is concerned so that your book maintains your unique voice!
What file type do I need to submit my manuscript in?
I require a Microsoft Word file of your document.
What is a "Pro" gig?
A Fiverr "Pro" gig means that the seller has been hand-vetted and verified as a professional in that particular industry. Only 1% of applicants (that's me!) get accepted to Fiverr Pro, so you can be sure you'll receive an incredibly high level of service!
What does your Proofreading/Copy Editing cover?
I will correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, syntax, readability, check for sentence structure and fix accordingly, flow, clarity, word choice, consistent voice and style.
What does your developmental editing cover?
A broad look at your topic, ease of understanding for the reader, consistency, pacing, and what is and isn't working with notes and suggestions for improvements and positive comments about what is working!
If I have written a series, would you edit the entire series?
Absolutely! We can certainly work out a custom order for more than one manuscript! If you mention ahead of time that you have a series, I can offer a discount!
Do you edit other genres?
I will edit and proofread any genre. Including: Fiction: literary, historical, romance, fantasy, sci-fi, YA, horror, poetry, short stories Nonfiction: business, self-help, inspirational, spirituality, Christian, memoir, tech

The true test of any book comes when it meets readers—something I won't know for a year or more—but I feel confident and ready to move forward with publication. That confidence comes largely from the quality of editorial work I received here.
