Let's work together to tell your story.
Editing is often one of the most difficult parts of the writing process, but it is also one of the most important.
Editing is the stepping stone between the rough draft and the bestseller. You need an editor who will preserve your unique writing style while helping your work reach its full potential, and help you reach your goals.

TESTIMONIALS
"Connor provided thoughtful feedback on my children's picture book, with helpful editing suggestions. She was friendly, communicative, and delivered on the same day. Fantastic experience!"
Joey
Beta Reading Client
"This is my first time hiring a development editor for my manuscript's first draft and I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was a great experience! I explained to Connor what my story was about, the word length, and what kind of feedback I was looking for. Communication was very clear. Once I sent my manuscript, the feedback came in two documents. One was a copy of the manuscript with small notes and comments on the side. The other was a fully written document with feedback on my story structure and chapter/story arc feedback on what could be improved upon. It was very informative and I plan to use all this information when I start my second draft! 10/10 would work with again!"

Developmental Editing Client
Connor was professional throughout and communicated frequently. She explained everything, and asked questions at the start to make sure I was getting the edits that my writing needed. Connor made everything easy. She is friendly and polite, and thorough in her edits. She picked up on so many mistakes that hadn't been caught prior, and showed me how to fix them. I will definitely reach out to her again for my next book.

Working with Connor was very fun and the wait was worth it. It made me realize that I do create good characters and need to stop second guessing myself about my writing skills. So yeah, thank you again! You're amazing, Connor.

This was a highly in depth review and they put in comments throughout the work that made me enjoy the review process as much as I did writing! I have a lot of edits to make, but with such great in depth feedback I have a direction to go and feel like I have a clear understanding of what needs to be done. Definitely book your time with this person!
