Stuck on the Endless Hamster Wheel of Revisions?
You’re not alone, and you’re not doing it wrong. You may just need a clearer process and the right help along the way.
Maybe you:
-
Struggled with voice, tense, flow, or word choice as you wrote
-
Need a second look at your punctuation, spelling, and grammar
-
Finished writing a first draft and are now ready to self-edit
-
Completed some editing already but feel like you’re going nowhere
All of these reasons are exactly why I’m here! So, let’s get you to the right spot . . .
If you're thinking . . .

The big-picture stuff is handled, but I need help with my wording

I want the best manuscript possible, and I know self-editing is a big part of getting there
Who Is Jeanette the Writer?
Hello there! My name is Jeanette, and I am an editor, creative writer, and recreational mermaid. Yep, a mermaid (I literally wrote the book on it).
I complete line and copyediting for fantasy, speculative fiction, romance, adventure, historical fiction, literary fiction, thriller, memoir, and nonfiction books ranging from middle grade to young adult to adult ages. The only genres I don't work on are horror, poetry, and picture books.
I am a member of ACES: The Society for Editing and the Editorial Freelancers Association. I have been moving commas since 2017 (and I can't wait to move yours too!).
