Although I’m only 2/3 of the way through the second round of editing my manuscript at the moment, I believe it’s time to begin the search for an editor. She’s super clean already but I need her detailed.
Here are some particulars on the job:
- 97,500 words
- Historical Fiction
- Soft edits; grammar and punctuation have been done but of course will need a set of fresh eyes to polish and shine
- I am financially challenged and will need someone who would be willing to work out something with me
- I will bake you cookies
I’m looking for the “one.” I’m searching for the person I may be able to work with indefinitely.
Suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi. I’d love to work with you to edit your manuscript. My business is a new one (launched in January) but I’m gradually building up a following of happy authors. My aim is to work closely with the author so I can deliver exactly what is required, and any suggestions I make are never meant as criticisms. My normal charge is £5 (about $8.4 US I think) with a 10% discount for manuscripts containing 50,000 words or more, but I’m sure we can negotiate a price to suit us both. I have a website http://www.alisonjack-editor.co.uk/ or you can email me directly at alisoneditor@outlok.com.
I hope to hear from you.
Thank you Alison. I’ll check out your web site. 🙂
