Services
A complete editorial studio for authors and imprints.
Each service can be booked on its own or combined into a single engagement. Every project begins with a written proposal tailored to your manuscript — its scope, its timeline, and the level of care it deserves.
- 01
Beta Reading
A first honest read from a trained reader's chair. You receive a written reader response covering pacing, engagement, character resonance, and the moments the story earns its keep.
- 02
Developmental Editing
Structural work on the manuscript itself: story architecture, pacing, character arc, point-of-view, thematic clarity, and the connective tissue that turns a draft into a book.
- 03
Line Editing
Prose-level craft. Rhythm, register, sentence variety, image and metaphor, tightening and lift — all done in your voice, not around it.
- 04
Copy Editing
Grammar, punctuation, spelling, house style, and internal consistency in names, timelines, and world detail — with a light hand and a full style sheet delivered with the file.
- 05
Proofreading
The final pass on the typeset manuscript. Layout errors, straggling typos, orphaned lines, and the small last things that separate a finished book from an almost-finished one.
- 06
Book Formatting
Print-ready and reflowable files for Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, paperback, and hardcover — set with proper typography, drop caps, and running heads.
- 07
Cover Design
Original covers for fiction and non-fiction, grounded in genre convention and your book's specific gravity. Full print wrap and ebook variants included.
- 08
Book Marketing
Launch planning, positioning, blurb and metadata copywriting, ARC strategy, and the quiet, sustained work of finding your book its readers.
The Process
A calm, predictable path from draft to delivery.

Submit your manuscript
Send the current draft, a short synopsis, and the questions on your mind. A response arrives within two business days.

Agreement in place and calendar held. You receive weekly progress notes and can reach me by email throughout the project.

The edited manuscript is returned with tracked changes and an editorial letter. We meet by call to walk through the notes.
