High-Quality Editing at Unbeatable Prices
Hi! I’m Emma, a published author and professional editor who loves working with authors to help them make their stories the best they can be.
I’m here to make your writing shine, not take over! I provide tailored, in-depth support that gives you both actionable feedback and a thorough assessment of all the things you’ve done well and the best parts of your story and style.
I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ writers, especially in general fiction, romance, historical fiction, horror and fantasy, but I’m happy to work in any genre. I’m especially passionate about working with marginalized writers, and I’ll always offer a safe, open and non-judgmental space for everyone.
Expert Editing for LGBTQ+ books
Hi, my name is Emma, and if you’re looking for an LGBT book editor, you’ve come to the right place! As a queer editor, I specialize in working with marginalized authors, and especially on LGBTQ+ books. I offer an inclusive, safe and understanding place for LGBTQ+ writers, where you don’t have to worry about judgement or stereotyping, or whether I’m going to understand the nuances of your story. I’m here to help make your writing shine, because the world needs more books like yours.
Why choose me?
I have years of experience as an editor, including working for an independent publisher and editing a literary journal. I also have a certification in copy editing, and aside from being an editor, I’m also a traditionally published authors, with two books out from Penguin. Not only does this mean I know what makes a good story, but I’ll bring my experience of the Big Five editorial process to your book too.
I’m not just an editor, I’m also your cheerleader and potentially your biggest fan. With me, you can expect to receive not just constructive feedback on areas to improve, but comments with my general thoughts and feelings throughout the book, lots of positive feedback, and a generally positive attitude. My goal is always to leave you with more confidence in your writing, not less, and provide you with the skills to bring it to the next level. Last but not least, I offer ongoing support, with discounted rates for repeat clients or purchasing multiple services, and an inbox that is always open to new questions and for workshopping new ideas.
LGBTQ+ book editing services
Right now I’m offering developmental editing, line editing, and copy editing for LGBTQ+ books, so I can support you no matter where you are in the editing process. I also offer a partial editing service for authors who aim to publish traditionally, where I assess your first 10 pages to help prepare you to query agents, and manuscript evaluation, where I read as much of your book as I need in order to recommend what type of editing you should get.
I work in a wide range of genres and I’m most comfortable with general fiction, romance, historical fiction, horror, and fantasy, but if you don’t see your genre listed here, feel free to reach out and provide some information about your project so we can figure out if we’d be a good fit for each other.
Affordable editing for LGBT books
While I have a lot of editing and writing experience, I’m new as a freelancer and still building up my portfolio. This means that for an extremely limited time, I’m offering a highly discounted flat rate for LGBTQ+ writers looking for editing services. If you’re on a tight budget, I’m the queer book editor you need.
