Now it’s time to make it be the best it can be.
It’s easier than ever to publish now, but self-publishing does come with some risks. Traditionally, authors accepted for publication would be assigned an editor who would root out errors, inconsistencies and awkward phrases. Now it’s up to you, the author, to ensure your book is clear, consistent and a pleasure to read.
Too many independent authors today will skip the vital editing step, relying instead upon their own expertise or that of their friends. But editing is a delicate business—your own mind may gloss over small errors, plot gaps or inconsistencies, and friends are not always the best critics.
Maybe you need a new pair of eyes for your finished manuscript, advice on characterization and plot flow, or help finding the pacing of your first book. Whether a short story or full-length novel, I can help you identify the weaknesses in your manuscript while enhancing the strengths. I will work with you to ensure your manuscript meets the standards of professional publications and help you craft a book that will captivate your readers while remaining true to your voice.
