Swayamsrestha K.

Expert Editor, Proofreader, & AI Humanization Specialist

- I have more than 8 years' experience in editing fiction and non-fiction manuscripts. I am also proficient in proofreading and copyediting literary work in a variety of genres: screenplays, shooting scripts, poetry, longform novels, and short stories. -As a multi-niche ghostwriter, voracious reader, and published author, I can 1. Rephrase glaring "AI-isms" in longform and shortform fiction and non-fiction manuscripts; 2. Guarantee that the humanized text will pass AI detection tools; 3. Fact check the accuracy of any historical data, technical content, references, and in-text citations in a variety of styles (APA, AP, MLA, CMOS, etc.); and 4. Provide actionable feedback to tighten overall sections and chapters in your book. -I am also proficient at editing college and graduate school applications, including SoPs, Personal Statements, and CVs (both academic and professional). My published writing has gained appreciation for deft sentencing, intricate plotting, and vividly memorable characters. As my clients will tell you, I'm an expert at reviving dead metaphors.
