PK H.

Freelance Book Editor, Formatter, and Story Coach

In need of story alchemy? Look no further. My hard-earned storytelling and editing skills, combined with my passion for artistic expression will help you level-up your manuscript. I have over thirteen years experience in the craft and have worked with multiple writers of all levels. First time novelist or non-fiction writer? No problem. I can walk you through the entire process of turning first-draft coal into writer's gold. Not only will I help develop your plot, structure, pacing, and characters, I'll line-edit for grammar, spelling and word flow, as well as format your book for ebook and print if you choose to publish independently. I can coach you through the entire process. My rates are a package deal! If traditional publishing is your path, I can guide you on your query letter writing and/or story blurb to prepare you for submission to literary agents. It's important to me to help you flesh out your best writer's voice and narration, which is why all of my edits will work to preserve your natural storytelling. In order for your story to work, it must engage your readers with whip-smart dialog, breakneck pacing, and an air-tight plot. For non-fiction and memoir, you must rely on savvy wordplay to keep your readers turning the pages. If it's a complete rewrite edit you need, I can make that happen too. From your unpolished draft, I will work my magic. Unsure what type of edits you need? No problem! Contact me to discuss and we will work something out. My credentials: Over thirteen years of experience in the publishing industry. Fourteen completed manuscripts. Nine published novels. Five years avid blogging and non-fiction / memoir work. Two former literary agent partnerships. Multiple novel and blogger awards. Multiple writing and editing workshops both in person and online, including- Save the Cat, Plot Whisperer, Margie Lawson's Deep Editing, SCBWI, Deep POV Intensive. 2020 Pitch Wars Mentee. Multiple critique exchanges with bestselling authors. Multiple query and blurb writing intensive workshops. Former member and/or behind-the-scenes blogger and coordinator for New-Adult Lit Chat, Operation Awesome, and IWSG. Proficient in Word, Scrivener, Vellum, Google Docs, Canva, Pages. Find my profile on LinkedIn for years of recommendations. /pk-hrezo/ Since I'm just starting out my freelance endeavor, my rates are highly competitive. This is a great time to try out my services and take advantage of my skills. I'd love to help you succeed! Would you like a free consultation via email or Zoom? Remember my pricing includes the ENTIRE package-- developmental edits, line edits, proofreading, formatting, query letter and/or blurb critique, book production (covers also doable through myself or I can refer you to professional artists.)
