Sally S.

Content editor, copy editor, beta reader, proofreader

I am native English-speaking, with a bachelor’s degree in English. I have been editing for 14 years. My editing skills include working for three e-book publishing companies, a monthly magazine, and individual authors. Throughout my career, I have edited fiction, nonfiction, magazine articles, and dissertation papers, including romance, inspirational romance, mysteries, and science fiction. In my role at the e-book publishing companies, I was a content editor, copy editor, and proofreader. This entailed reading through a story several times to produce an error-free document. I have a fast turn-around time, and I have the knowledge and skills to offer feedback on your project, fix grammatical errors, plot holes, whatever is needed to make your project shine. I look forward to working with you.
