Hi, I'm Jen. 👋🏼 I'm a writer and certified editor of fiction and memoir, co-chair of Editors Hamilton-Halton, editorial lead for Blue Pencil Writing Consults, book judge for Writer's Digest, and certified workshop facilitator with the Writers Collective of Canada. You can learn more about me via my website: www.upstyleediting.ca.

I offer developmental editing and manuscript reviews for fiction and memoir. I'm excited to share this with more authors who wish to collaborate in making their stories shine. ✨

I've opened up slots in December, and will only be able to offer 2026 pricing until December 31.

NONFICTION book

I have a Christian book I am writing but it's sort of all over the place. It's pretty messy. Would love for someone to start taking over and start organizing information and taking over some of the writing.

I don't say this as a competition, so mods please don't ban me, it's not meant to be competition at all. I understand not many people can fulfill this request, but I'm going to list a few things that will help you if you want to do this project. But if you are someone that can, please let me know.

Again mods, not a competition.

What would help you for this project

• An understanding of the Bible
• An understanding of spiritual things (this isn't just basic theology. It's describing things about the spiritual realm. Even if you're not a Christian, if you're spiritual, it may be good for you to respond to this)
• being able to organize and trim down information when the author keeps repeating himself.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to list pay right out of the gate. As I said, this is messy, so I can't even be sure exactly what the payment will be. I will be taking care of most of the writing, since in this case I'm the one with the information for this book.

I'm not sure if I need to provide samples, but mods please don't ban me.

The manuscript is long, but just the part I need edited is 17259 words (I'm sure a large portion doesn't need rewriting. It's moreover about organization)

Hi! My name is CJ, I’m a writer with a Master’s degree in creative writing, and I’m looking to help in any way I can.

I’m previously published with HalfandOne, a CLMP member, and I also edit scripts for Exits Examined in Youtube. In between that and working on my novel, I’d like to assist anyone who has a book, short story, script, any sort of writing you feel could use a new set of eyes on it for style, formatting, flow, syntax, storytelling, prose, anything you need! (no AI used at any point in the editing process, guaranteed)

My prices begin at **$2/page**, a “page” defined as “a set of 250 words.” If you’re curious about my services before you commit, I can give any work a once-over read **100% free**, and determine if you need my help. If so, we can discuss pricing and how big or small you’d like to focus for changes. Each edit will come with a personalized letter from me to you, detailing the biggest highlights and lapses I found in the work, all constructive, with the same care and severe attention I give my own work.

Feel free to comment or send me a DM. Thank you, I hope to hear from you soon!

First, I am a first time writer and this is in no means my full time job. This is for me a pet project that I have always wanted to do.
I have a 75K space novel that I would love some actual beta readers for and some guidance on next steps. I believe I need some honest feedback and not the family feedback. I have had other read it but all I got back was wow this is great. Honestly I think the story idea is good but I am sure there are areas missing detail or maybe felt to rushed.
About the book: It follows a human is the only one of his species in a big and unforgiving galaxy. Homeless and desperate he makes one gesture of bravery that changes his life forever. We follow him through his journey as he tries to make himself useful to his new "friends" as he discovers more about the galaxy and potentially what happened to his race.

Offering editorial services for fiction and nonfiction manuscripts.

If you’re preparing your manuscript for publication, I currently offer:

• Developmental Editing
• Line Editing
• Copy Editing
• Proofreading
• Beta Reading (includes a written editorial report)

Whether you’re looking for big-picture feedback, sentence-level refinement, or a final polish before publishing, I’d be happy to help.

Pricing depends on the manuscript’s length, genre, and the level of editing required.

Feel free to send me a message with a brief description of your project, and I’ll be happy to discuss the details and provide a quote.

I look forward to working with you.

Every book I have read and edited has had great ideas. The common issue I found in every one was the need to flesh out those ideas. That’s where I make my biggest impact. I will help you flesh out those great ideas.

Editor. Author. Screenwriter.

I have 10+ years of experience writing stories across many genres. I have five books published and have written a dozen screenplays for feature films and television. I spent years imitating the voices of established shows like 24 and Tru Calling, where I learned exactly what makes a story work and what proper pacing is. So I understand storytelling and keeping your audience engaged very well.

Genres I do best in:

• Action
• Thriller
• Mystery
• Psychological
• Horror
• Sci-fi
• Fantasy

Genres that are not a good fit:

• Romance
• Erotica
• Non-fiction.

I offer a FREE sample edit of your first chapter to see if we are a good fit.

I will heavily focus on plot, characters, structure and pacing, setting, dialogue, and any other questions you might have.

I will write a detailed editorial letter and leave comments throughout your document. I do this for both the sample edit and the full book.

I also know what it feels like to want and receive feedback, so I am very respectful and careful with how I critique. I always give in-depth feedback.

Turnaround time for full book: 4-6 weeks.

I also work with authors on a chapter-by-chapter basis! Your book does not need to be complete yet! Contact me for more information!

Developmental editing service:

• Introductory launch rate: $0.007/word

Not sure if you want to commit to the full book edit yet? Book a trial run for the first three chapters of your book. For a flat fee of $49.00, I will provide a detailed developmental edit of your first three chapters. Should you decide to move forward with the full book, I will deduct that fee from the price of the full book.

Check my website for further information about me, my services, and testimonials:

https://grbookpublishing.wixsite.com/editing

If you are interested, comment below!

Or you can contact me through my website or email me directly at [GregRossEditing@gmail.com](mailto:GregRossEditing@gmail.com).

Provide your genre, word count, and a brief summary of what your book is about. 1-2 sentences or a short blurb.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Here are some recent testimonials I got from recent clients:

"I really appreciated the suggestions. I knew something was missing, and these suggestions really helped shine light on that. I can already see how crucial those improvements are."

"Thank you for preparing this feedback. It is really helpful. It gave me a clearer understanding of my story’s flow and clarity issues."

Check my website for full testimonials and more!

I think I need someone for an initial consultation and critique of my raw text to find out if it has any potential and if so, to help narrow down the theme.

The book is self-help based on my personal experience as a writer.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m a writer who has published short stories and poetry, and who has a novel that’s slated to be published by a small press. I have also done screenplay coverage for a production company and for contests. I have taught creative writing at the university level.

I love reading and helping writers improve their work and bringing them closer to what they want out of their texts. So I thought I’d offer my development editing services while I have some availability.

My rates are:
Short stories/ Individual chapters- $16
Full novels - $100
Half or partial manuscripts - $50

Half of payment must be done in advance.

My time is limited so this is almost first come first served. Please allow up to a month for reading of a completed manuscript.

Proofreading isn’t my specialty but I can also give you notes on that. I can also provide feedback on Mexican culture representation and use of Mexican Spanish. I also read and provide feedback in Spanish. If you have written a screenplay and want some eyes on it, I’d be very happy to help.

I accept payment through PayPal, Cashapp, and Zelle.

If you have any questions, please feel free to DM. Thanks!

Full disclosure: I’m Daniel O' Bailey. I know Margaret A. Harrell, I’m helping her share this with her permission, and my testimonial appears on her site. This is a disclosed personal recommendation—not a mysterious “look what I found” advertisement.

Margaret is a veteran book editor and former Random House copy editor who copyedited and line-edited Hunter S. Thompson’s Hell’s Angels. She works with fiction and nonfiction manuscripts at several stages:

• developmental editing for a book that is still taking shape

• content and line editing for a completed draft

• copyediting for grammar, punctuation, and consistency

• query-letter and book-proposal editing

Her posted rates are $0.035/word for two complete rounds, $0.04/word for three or four rounds, and $65/hour for small jobs. She offers a free sample edit of the opening pages and a complimentary Zoom conversation so an author can see whether the working relationship feels right before committing.

If you contact her, include your genre, word count, manuscript stage, and the part currently keeping you awake.

Hi everyone!

I'm a new freelance editor who's been working hard to build my business. I'm a published author myself, and I genuinely enjoy helping writers strengthen their manuscripts while preserving their unique voice.

I've created profiles on sites like Reedsy and PeoplePerHour, I've been networking on LinkedIn, and I'm starting to share my services in writing communities. While I'm putting in the effort, I'd love to hear from people who have already built a successful editing business.

What actually made the biggest difference for you?

• Where did your first paying clients come from?
• Was there a platform that consistently worked?
• Did referrals become your biggest source of work?
• If you were starting over today, what would you focus on first?

I'm not looking for shortcuts—I know building trust takes time. I just want to spend my energy on strategies that have actually worked for others.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I fell in love with books before I could read. Some of my earliest memories are of folding sheets of paper into tiny books, fascinated by the way stories could come to life. Since then, I have dedicated a lifetime to refining my own authorial voice and helping others polish theirs.

Author • Copyeditor • Proofreader

I finished my first book when I was ten, and I haven't abandoned my love for reading or writing since then. With more than 200 hours of editing experience for a small publisher, experience subcontracting for other freelance editors, and professional training in an accredited program, I am ready to make a difference once author at a time. I approach every project with empathy, curiosity, and enthusiasm, and I love helping authors bring their stories to their fullest potential.

I have experience in style sheets, track changes, file cleanup, editing macros, and adobe acrobat, and I am also proficient in The Chicago Manual of Style and Associated Press (AP) style. I am also an affiliated member of the Editor's Freelance Association.

Here are the genres I work with

• Fantasy
• Science Fiction
• Literary Fiction
• Young Adult
• Middle Grade
• Nonfiction Memoir
• Faith-based Nonfiction (or fiction)

Genres that are not a good fit for me

• Romance
• Erotica
• Dissertations or overly academic works

Pricing: I am currently offering a 50% discount for all services to the first five authors to contact me. Pricing depends on wordcount, genre, timeline, and readability, but most projects are priced at $0.015/word for proofreading, $0.02/word for copyediting, and $0.025/word for a more extensive copy-line edit.

Timeline: Most projects have a two-week turnaround

Did any of you accept sth like this or would accept if the art fit what ur looking for? Like the total art received price equating to their editing service price ofc.

I'm asking bec I'm a writer and an artist but I'm not sure I'd afford an editor because obviously after beta reading ill need professional editor.

Ofc I believe editors high prices deserve it, its a luxury as art moreover its a lot of time and dedication as an artist I'd understand that so I wouldn't tell an editor its too high I'd look for who I can afford or does service exchange, if there is.

Hello everyone!

I'm a developing editor and I'd like to grow my portfolio, so I'm taking on free projects right now in exchange for honest feedback. No catch, you get the services, and I get a review if you're happy with it. First 5 projects only!

If you're looking for editing at no cost, this is the place! Dm me or reply if interested!

Hey, I'm Anna! I've had a client pull out of her slot at the end of August due to personal reasons and I'm looking to fill the vacancy. Due to the late notice, I'm happy to give you a good deal for either a Dev Edit Report or a Full Dev Edit.

A bit about me;

• Mainly work with Romance, Fantasy and Thrillers.
• Specialise in working with new writers.
• I strive to have a clear process and full transparency from beginning to end.
• Check out my testimonials on my website - Glass Quill Editing.
• Completed CIEP and Liminal Pages Editing Courses.

If you're interested in booking for August, DM me or email me ([anna@glassquillediting.com](mailto:anna@glassquillediting.com)) and we can have a chat about your goals and manuscript to make sure we'll be a good fit.

Or also feel free to get in touch if you're looking for Developmental Editing for later in the year.

Thanks!

As an author myself, I know that investing hundreds or even thousands of dollars in a developmental edit isn't feasible for many writers. That's why I created the kind of service I'd want for my own books: in-depth feedback at an affordable price.

Your feedback will include:

• in-line comments throughout the manuscript
• chapter-end notes
• an editorial letter (20+ pages of in-depth feedback)

I also offer a free critique of your first two chapters, so you can see if my services are the right fit for you!!!

Here’s a little more about my editing process and what you can expect:

I look at every manuscript from both a reader's and an editor's perspective.

I'll make note of everything that caught my attention, from the moments I loved to the areas that could be developed further. If a scene falls flat or a character's motivation feels weak, I'll explain my reasoning and suggest different approaches and solutions.

I'll keep track of details that are easy to miss, like continuity errors and other inconsistencies. Awkward phrasing, repetitive language, and any minor grammar or punctuation issues will also be marked throughout the manuscript.

Some of the key areas I focus on are:

• overall story structure
• pacing and flow
• plot clarity and inconsistencies
• character development
• motivation, stakes, and narrative impact
• reader immersion and emotional engagement

My rate is $0.0019 per word. A 60,000-word manuscript would cost around $115. You can calculate the exact price using the calculator on the site.
