You want a beautiful, polished, practically perfect manuscript.
Your manuscript is coming to me for every spa treatment you can think of and then some! Think makeover-montage for your story. I’ll be Victor to your Gracie Hart, Paolo to Mia Thermopolis. Only WAAYYY nicer.
But seriously, we’re going to make sure you pass the clear-consistent-efficient test to keep your reader turning the page. I’ll streamline the text and identify any repetitive words or phrases, pinpoint redundancies in the story, and overall polish your writing.
In addition to the copyedit itself (Track changes in Word), I provide:
-
- an editorial report (AKA a second document with additional and expanded notes) specific to your manuscript so you’ll have tools to improve your writing on your own for the next book.
- a one-hour consultation to be used at your discretion throughout the course of your project’s journey.
*While I proofread along the way, revision errors are super sneaky Petes.
I recommend a final round of proofreading for any document. For real.
Communication.
It was AMAZING.
You were super responsive, so I never felt like I was just another ‘job’.
You made it feel like a personal experience, which is wonderful since I put so much of my heart into my book.
I just knew it was in great hands!

You want your book to be as error free as possible.
Proofreading is my happy place; I love-love-love finding the sneaky little typos hiding in your manuscript. The cleaner your manuscript, the funner the hunt! (yes, I said funner.)
Honestly, my goal is to give you the most awesome product achievable by eradicating typographical errors like incorrect spellings and punctuational mishaps.
Bonus: In addition to proofreading, if I see a discrepancy in the text (copyediting stuff), I’ll bring it to your attention. You really don’t want a character with three arms. Unless she’s supposed to have three arms. See it, say it, sorted.
I have used several other proofreaders (I try to do at least two proofs with each book), and you are by far the best.
You are an amazing copy editor as well . . . Basically, I wonder if there is anything you can’t do?

BETTER THAN A BETA READ
This super-special service is offered on a limited basis and is totally worth it for the right authors. Might be for you if:
- You write romance or cozy mystery.
- You’re a woman of faith, whether your books showcase it or not.
- You’re on your first-to-fifth book.
- You’re building your production team.
- You value honest, constructive feedback delivered with care and kindness.
Includes a 3-7 page editorial report, real-time reader comments, occasional copyediting directions with whys and wherefores so you can follow suit yourself.
April is kind, funny and knows her stuff when it comes to editing. She is quick with followup and detail oriented. I love that April gives positive reinforcement, because it’s so important to growth, in my humble opinion. And when there is a critique, it is gentle and helpful. I feel that April’s style is a perfect blend to help authors be their best and learn more about what works. I would absolutely recommend her to any author wanting editorial work done.
