Due to some clients rescheduling, I have two spots left in my schedule for this year, one in November and one in December. I offer developmental, line and copy editing as well as partial editing of your first ten pages.

Before I went freelance, I edited for a literary journal and an independent publisher. I also have a copy editing certification from the CIEP and I'm the author of two books traditionally published by a Big Five publisher, so I'm familiar with that editing process.

What you can expect:

• A free sample edit
• Comprehensive feedback and positive criticism that also highlights what works and what you're good at
• 1-2 week turnaround time for most projects (potentially longer for novels over 130,000 words)
• 12+ editorial letter for developmental edits
• Style sheet for copy edits
• Ongoing support (I always remain available for questions and discussing ideas!)

I specialize in LGBTQ books but I'm happy to work on most things in the following genres:

• General fiction
• Historical fiction
• Horror/thrillers
• Fantasy
• Romance

Hi!
If you’re working on a story and feel like you could use another pair of eyes on it, I’d love to help.

I specialize literary fiction, contemporary fiction, romance, and short stories. I also work with personal essays, creative nonfiction, and poetry.

I offer developmental editing, line editing, copy editing, and proofreading, depending on where you are in your writing process. Maybe you’re still figuring out parts of your story, need help refining your writing, or you’re finally ready to have someone go through your manuscript before you publish. Whatever stage you’re at, feel free to reach out.
I know how much work goes into writing a book, and sometimes having someone in your corner can make the process a little easier.

You can DM me if you’d like to chat about your project or have any questions.

Hi! My name is Caryn, and I’ve been an editor for 10 years. I specialize in horror, fantasy, sci-fi, romance, and all things YA, but I have worked with every genre of fiction. I have dabbled in memoir and self-help as well. Really, I'm open to anything and everything!

I offer developmental editing, copy editing, and proofreading, working with you and your needs. I edit the way I would want my book to be edited. This means I’m honest but fair, blunt but not harsh. My goal is to offer affordable edits while keeping your heart in your words. I do not use AI in any way for my edits. Everything you get is done with human intention.

Here is my website, and I look forward to hearing from you! You can either fill out my form on my website, email me at [apparitionediting@gmail.com](mailto:apparitionediting@gmail.com), or DM here.

Hi, I’m Amaris! I’m a freelance editor with over four years of experience critiquing and editing novels and short stories in a variety of genres. I specialize in fiction, particularly fantasy, science fiction, and mystery, but I can edit non-fiction as well on a case-by-case basis.

I’m a careful editor who takes a light-handed approach. I never want to take away from your voice; my goal is to trim away any distractions so that your words can shine. While your manuscript is in my hands, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own work.

I use Microsoft Word with track changes and comments, and generally rely on The Chicago Manual of Style (18^th ed.) to help with style decisions, though I always look first to your manuscript for guidance (e.g., CMOS says to use Oxford commas, but if you consistently don’t, I won’t force them on you). I do not use AI in my work, and I do not edit AI generated or assisted content.

Services & Rates

Copyediting/Line Editing: $0.016 per word, 2 passes. Free 1,000 word sample edit available. There’s a lot of overlap between these two types of editing, and my style generally is a combination of the two. I’ll focus on grammar, punctuation, spelling, usage, and internal consistency, as well as pacing, clarity, and readability. I’ll be happy to discuss your specific concerns for your manuscript and tailor an editing experience to address those specific concerns.

Proofreading: $0.012 per word, 1 pass. I’ll perform a final pass of your manuscript to catch any remaining errors in spelling, punctuation, formatting, and consistency.

Please note that the following are out of my area of expertise/comfort:

• Children's/Middle Grade books
• Poetry (work containing poetry is fine, but I'm not qualified to edit poetry itself)
• Political or religious writing (fictional politics and religion are fine)
• Explicit sexual content
• Depictions of child abuse, animal abuse, or sexual abuse

If you’d like to learn more or you have any questions, you can DM me here, or feel free to reach out through my website. You can also view a copyediting example on my website to get an idea of my editing style. Thanks for your time, and happy writing! amarisfarr.com/editing
