The author of six published novels and a collection of short stories (see my freelancer profile for full details), I have over ten years' editing experience. In that time, I have worked with all kinds of writers - from debut authors to the far more established - writing in all kinds of different genres: literary, historical, romance, fantasy, YA etc.
Familiar with all publishing industry standards, I will edit your 83,000 word manuscript in three stages. Firstly, a basic line edit to eradicate typos and grammatical errors. Secondly, a more creative edit looking at content, sentence structure, word choice etc. And thirdly, a final edit to give your manuscript that essential professional polish. (Plus, I will provide an interim assessment of your book within forty-eight hours of receipt).
In terms of availability, I have a clear desk presently and can begin right away, with a view to completely the job with 14 days.
Additional info: I have written historical fiction myself, am a native English speaker, and work with track changes in Word.
