FROM UNFINISHED MANUSCRIPT → READY TO LAUNCH

the FINE EDIT
for YOUR STORY.

You know what you mean. I know how to read it. I’m looking at your words and paying attention to when they don’t quite do what you thought they were doing.

From writers who’ve
been where you are.

“Susan’s edits never changed what I meant but helped me say it more clearly.”

– John T.

“It is important to me that my stories exist in the way I want them to be read. Susan took the time to really know what I wanted.”

– Chris

“Susan has edited several of my novels and caught plot and line errors after beta readers did not. She really focuses on the details, and is a blessing to authors wanting a professional, clean book to send off to publishers or launch.”

– Lynn, award-winning author

Before I Touch a Word …

I want to understand what you want—and what you don’t want to lose along the way.

As a writer myself, I know how much thought goes into the words on a page. I know the decisions, the second-guessing, and understand the reluctance to let go of a sentence you love.

And as an editor, I know how to look at those words and see where a little attention can make them clearer. So before I start pointing out where a sentence stumbles or a word isn’t quite right, I want to hear what matters most to you.

Sit Back ... Relax

And for once, when you think about your book, you’re not thinking: What did I miss?

But instead ...

“I did it.” You can open the file without immediately finding something you want to change. You can talk about your book without adding, “Well, except for…”

Let yourself be excited. Maybe even start jotting down the next story you’ve been thinking about.

That’s what I want for you when your book leaves my desk.
