Commonly Asked Questions

How much do editors charge?

Every editor and manuscript is different, but I typically charge according to EFA standards, which you can find here. 

What genres do you work with?

  • Fantasy

  • Mystery

  • Romance

  • Young Adult

  • Horror

  • Thriller

  • Literary Fiction

  • Historical Fiction

  • Science Fiction

Do you use AI?

No. My job is to enhance your novel using my expertise and training, not to run it through an AI program. 

Do I need an editor?

Yes. And I'm not just saying that because it's my job. No matter how much you self-edit, you are always going to have blind spots when it comes to your own work. Editors help point out weaknesses before they become bigger issues, and a good editor will make you a better writer. 

What type of editing do I need?

This depends on what stage you are in the process, which typically looks like this:

Developmental Edit

 

Line Edit

 

Copy Edit

 

Proofread

If you need help determining what type of editing you require, feel free to send me an email.
