Let's Talk Money

I specialize in line edits with a twist!

Line editing focuses on improving the flow, clarity, and style of writing at the sentence and paragraph level, ensuring a piece of writing is engaging and easy to read.

My Line edits include basic copyediting (technical aspects like grammar and punctuation), reader reaction comments, and basic developmental comments like continuity or clarity issues that may require some rewriting to fix.
