Editing

Editing Services

I offer editing services to those who need an editor for creative works.  While I have a favoritism of fictional work, I am also open to nonfiction and professional writing.

Standard Rates

My editing rates are dependent on project.  Typically, it is a flat-rate for the entire project.  People are often surprised by how many rounds of reading and editing that go into a single project.  Even more surprising is the amount of hours that it takes for me to make sure that your work is at its strongest.  As such, I avoid hourly rates; I like to be direct and leave no surprises.

​

If that answer does not satisfy you, I typically aim for approximately $25-40/hr.

Timeline and Turnaround

The time it takes to complete a project is dependent on the project.  Given that I teach and work as an editor for Curious Curls Publishing, I am often busy.  While I may work a bit slower, I guarantee that I am vigilant and catch tiny details that many other editors may overlook.  I also have the added benefit of being able to provide more creative insight than other editors can, should you want the extra input.

Credentials & Experience

My experiences are still growing.  I am currently teaching at Cleveland State University, Ursuline College, and Notre Dame College.  I have also taught for St. Charles Community College virtually in 2022.  In my growing course list, I have taught or am teaching standard first year English courses, Developmental Writing, and World Mythology.  In these courses, I focus on editing skills constantly and evaluate the academic and professional writing of students.

​

I earned a Master's in Fine Arts in Creative Writing.  I also attended Saint Vincent College for my undergraduate studies!  Presently, I run a small literary press called Curious Curls Publishing, where I work with authors regularly and am always editing.

​

Lastly, I have had multiple jobs in teaching, assistant teaching, counseling, and tutoring.  To find out more, feel free to check LinkedIn or the About page.

​

  • What type of work is it?  Novel?  Play?  Essay?

  • What is the work about?

  • What is the length?

  • How quickly do you need it by, or is the deadline flexible?

  • What types of edits are you looking for?  Fine edits, larger content edits, or both?
