book editing

What's black and white and red all over? A manuscript an editor has gotten their hands on.

As an editor, my job is to tidy up those run-on sentences, correct the use of improper grammar, and help get your point across a little bit clearer. Over the last nine years, I've worked with writers from all across the world to make their books a gleaming masterpiece while still keeping the integrity of the work intact.

​

A little style adjustment here. A little correction there. Maybe a bit of re-writing... et viola! A masterpiece.

brand development

Don't judge a book by it's cover? That's easier said than done.

We live in a world predominantly experienced through social media, and it takes less than 10 seconds for someone to determine whether or not they want to follow you. Yikes! That means first-impressions are crucial.

​

Being successful as an author starts long before your book is finished. It starts as soon as you start marketing yourself as an author. If you want to see book sales jump from day one, you need to position yourself as someone who has an unforgettable story to tell.

her attention to detail is wonderful

Danielle has a good eye for where you can expand your descriptions. Her attention to grammar is wonderfully helpful and she is suited to help even the most lost writers find their way. Her changes and recommendations were coming from a place of understanding from a fellow author. I gained some great insight into the placement of some details and pacing.

she is quick and thorough!

Danielle made immediate adjustments to the parts of the work that needed it while leaving parts that needed to be reworded marked but left to me to fix. When she leaves feedback to rework something, it allows freedom as a writer to fix the mistake.

her feedback was invaluable!

As a newbie, I found it daunting to send a section of my work out to a professional, due to my lack of confidence in my writing skills. Danielle's comments and suggestions have been most helpful. Her feedback was invaluable! I now feel spurred on to continue with my novel.
