Call Of The Word Freelance Editor Freelance Copywriter

EDITOR

You have found your editor.

Welcome! 

First things first, all are welcome here at Call Of The Word! First-time authors, published writers, indie-authors, established novelists, you will all find everything you need here to help you reach your publishing goal, not to mention an editor who is committed to you and your manuscript.

 

This is what I do. 

 

 As an editor, I am here to take your manuscript and to envision it to be the very best it can be. From there I work backwards through all the threads of your novel - narrative voice, plot, character, structure, syntax and so on. I untangle the knots, iron the whole thing out and present to you a vision of what your work could be. Then, I am with you, onboard until the very end when you have a finished piece ready to launch into the world.

So, let's get started! Scroll on down to find out more about my Editorial Services.
