Congratulations on getting your manuscript to the editing stage – my own novel (a genre-blending historical fantasy) remains a work in progress…​​​​​​​​​​

​

An aspiring author myself, I provide a proofreading and copyediting service for independent authors.

​

A copyedit should be carried out prior to typesetting. A proofread should be carried out on the typeset version of your manuscript as it's the final stage before publication.

​

Genres I've edited in include crime and thriller, romance, LGBTQ+, literary, fantasy, young adult, and narrative non-fiction (memoir), and I'm comfortable working in most genres.

​

I will edit a sample (of up to one thousand words) of your manuscript and return it to you, free of charge, so that you can see the quality of my work. The length of time taken to edit your sample will form the basis for my quote. You can upload your sample here.

“Louise did a fab job over-all. I would be delighted to work with her on more projects in the future.”

"Working with Louise has been a delightful experience.

Her approach from start to finish was professional, super-helpful and insightful.

For someone new to publishing, it's been critical to build a team of people I can trust and rely on, and I think Louise brings a great deal of expertise and knowledge which can only improve my writing."
