Be free in your writing.

About Freedom Editing

With Freedom Editing, I ensure you have freedom in your writing while helping your story be the best it can be. I specialise in editing fiction short stories, novels, and novellas for young adults, new adults, and adults only.

I happily work with LGBTQIA+, POC, and Indigenous authors and stories, as well as authors and characters with mental and/or chronic illnesses and disabilities.

Genres I Edit

I currently do not edit poetry, non-fiction, or anything below the young adult age range.

I am most experienced working with fiction stories in the following genres:

  • Fantasy

  • Dystopian

  • Science Fiction

  • Romance

  • Thriller

  • Paranormal

  • Mixtures of these genres

Editing Services

  • $0.012/word

    Usually the first step in the editing process, this involves looking at the story as a whole, focusing on plot development, character development, story structure and organisation, and world building.

    I provide in-margin comments highlighting strengths and areas for improvement throughout the manuscript, and an editorial letter that details strengths and improvements and my summary of the manuscript.

  • $0.018/word

    Line editing typically looks at paragraph and sentence structure, eliminating unnecessary words, clichés, and redundancies to ensure optimal readability. I will not only make these changes using track changes, but I will also provide feedback and reasoning using in-margin comments to educate authors.

    Copy editing corrects spelling, grammar, and punctuation use, also using track changes and in-margin comments when necessary. This combo edit may include a small editorial letter briefly outlining common strengths and improvements.

  • $0.008/word

    Usually the last stage in the editing process, this involves reading through the manuscript for any changes that previous edits may have missed.

    I will happily proofread manuscripts I haven’t previously worked on as I understand how important a fresh set of eyes can be. Because of this, I encourage authors I have worked with on previous edits to seek proofreading elsewhere, however I will also proofread your manuscript if that is what you prefer. If needed, I will use track changes and in-margin comments to note any changes.
