About this Gig


Hey!

I'm Vanessa.

I provide careful, line-level editing for completed or in-progress poetry collections, focusing on clarity, flow, and language while preserving your voice.


This gig is for poets who are preparing their manuscript for publication or beginning to compile their collection and want thoughtful, respectful edits. Although I offer copy editing, I don't do rewrites. I DO NOT FORMAT.


What you get:

  • Line-by-line edits using Track Changes (Microsoft Word)
  • Grammar and punctuation corrections
  • Smoother flow and clearer lines (I do not rewrite your work)
  • Consistency across poems
  • Confidentiality and care for your creative voice


Optional extra:

  • Overall feedback on the collection as a whole (themes, cohesion, flow)



Requirements:

  • One manuscript per order
  • One Word document only (no PDFs or Pages)
  • Projects over 5,000 words require a custom order


I reserve the right to decline manuscripts containing content that promotes harm, hate, or abuse.


I approach poetry with care, respect, and an author's understanding of how personal this work can be.

I'd be happy to help you prepare your collection for its next step!

    Working with Vanessa has been one of the best decisions I made for my poetry collection. As an author, handing over such deeply personal work was incredibly daunting. This collection explores my late autism diagnosis, breast cancer, eating disorder recovery, motherhood, faith, and identity, and Vanessa...

    ABSOLUTELY 10/10! Cannot reccomend her enough. I was completely blown away by her ability to navigate through changes and quick responsiveness. Her attention to detail is out of this world and you can tell she is really invested in the work she completes. I was very appreciative of her willingness to...

    Vanessa brings a sense of humor and an eye for both detail and the big picture to her editing. She was flexible about communications and helped me see my manuscript's full potential. A wonderful human being to work with. Will be ordering again.

    It was a pleasure working with Vanessa. I specifically asked for feedback as part of the service, and she really delivered — her notes were genuinely helpful and made the manuscript stronger. She's upfront about exactly what her work includes before you even start, so there are no surprises along the way. Definitely recommend her. Thank you again, Vanessa!
