My past editing adventures

Loose Leaf Editing Portfolio

  • What types of editing services do you offer?
    I offer a range of services including manuscript reviews, copy editing, proofreading and basic interior book formatting to help you produce polished, professional work.
  • How do I determine which service I need?
    If you want feedback on your story, choose a manuscript review. For polishing your writing, consider copy editing or proofreading. For preparing your book for publication, opt for formatting services. Feel free to get in touch for personalised guidance.
  • How do I get started?
    Simply reach out through the contact form or email, send your project details, and I’ll provide a quote along with the next steps.
  • Do you offer a free sample edit?
    I offer a free sample edit (usually no more than 1,000 words) to all writers who contact me about my full editorial services, but there are also examples of my work on each individual services page. There is a limit of 1 sample edit per client.
  • How long does the process take?
    Turnaround times depend on the service and project scope. I’ll provide an estimated timeline when you request a quote.
  • Do you work with non-fiction, poetry or memoirs?
    Unfortunately not. I mainly focus on fiction and novels, so that's where my expertise really shines. That said, I’ve dabbled a bit with non-fiction, poetry and memoirs, but my heart is in helping fiction authors bring their stories to life.
  • What file formats do you accept?
    I primarily work with Word documents (.doc/.docx). Other formats like PDFs can be reviewed depending on the service.
  • How do I know if my manuscript or project is suitable for your services?
    If you’re seeking professional feedback or help to prepare your work for publication, I can assist. Get in touch if you’re unsure.
  • Do you edit with US or UK English?
    Both! Just let me know your preference when we're discussing your project.
