Write. Edit. Rewrite. Re-edit. Rewrite the edit. Edit the rewrite. 

First drafts are meant to be rubbish. That’s a fact.

Which is why the role of editor or book doctor exists.

If you’ve written a first draft but having spent so long immersed in the text, it’s sometimes hard to take an objective look at it.

That’s where I can help.

I can look at it with a fresh pair of eyes.

I can give your manuscript an initial evaluation and if we want to work together, I can iron out the plotlines, settings, character developments, tone, and grammar.

If you need me to, I can completely work on the manuscript to create a book that you’ll be proud of.

And of course, it’ll still have your name on the front.

My book editing/doctoring process

1. Free consultation

We can chat, either on email or video call to find out a bit more about each other, your ideas, expectations, and aims.

2. basic manuscript review

I’ll take an initial look over your manuscript to ascertain what editorial work would need doing. I can provide free general feedback about your work.

3. fee quote

I’ll provide a free quote (with payment options) in the event that you would like me to go ahead and work on your manuscript.

4. fee quote

I’ll provide a free quote (with payment options) in the event that you would like me to go ahead and work on your manuscript. If your budget doesn’t extend to full editing services, I can provide a quote for detailed analysis and editorical recommendations for you to carry out yourself.

5. development

If you decide that you’d like me to edit your book, we’ll draw up a timeline of deliverables, finance, and goals. I’ll then get to work and keep you updated throughout the entire process.
