What makes Fine Line Proofs unique?


My philosophy: that editing goes beyond merely fixing mistakes; it focuses on how you want to enhance your writing and celebrates your individuality as a writer—debunking the myth that you won’t be a successful writer if you don’t follow the “writing and editing rules.” You deserve to tell your story authentically and impactfully, and the joy of seeing you succeed is what feeds my heart and soul.

A little pruning...

As an editor, writer, and gardener, my love for language and flowers often intertwine. Gardening is so similar to editing and writing!

I've lost count the number of times I've dreaded the task of weeding my garden, only to find that it brings me more joy than I expected. If I were to leave everything to grow freely, it would turn into a chaotic mess. However, by revisiting the garden multiple times during the growing season and carefully removing those plants that clash in color, style, or simply overgrow, I can create a lovely final result.

Writing a book and creating a garden may take some “tough love,” but I've found that a little pruning is the perfect way to create something that can be cherished for years to come.
